Former IAS officer Abhishek Singh faces scrutiny over his disability status. Singh claimed a locomotor disability to receive UPSC selection process concessions. However, social media videos showing him dancing and working out have raised questions about the legitimacy of his claim. Singh denies allegations, citing targeting over his support for reservations. The controversy has sparked calls for greater transparency in government recruitment processes. Singh's case follows another high-profile incident involving a trainee IAS officer, Puja Khedkar accused of submitting fake disability certificates. The incidents have put the spotlight on the need for stricter verification processes.
