Guwahati: The retired Justice Biplab Kumar Sharma Commission, which was tasked with investigating claims of irregularities and malpractices in the conduct of the Assam Public Service Commission (APSC) CCE 2013 and 2014 exams, is expected to submit its report on the 2014 exam within a week.
The Commission had earlier submitted its report on the 2013 exam in April 2022.
The report found widespread irregularities and malpractices in the conduct of the exam and recommended that the government scrap the selection of the entire 2013 batch.
