Maharashtra has paused the district training of IAS officer Puja Khedkar amid accusations of fraud in her UPSC exam. Khedkar is alleged to have misrepresented herself under the physical disabilities and OBC categories. The Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration (LBSNAA) recalled her for further action. Pune Police will investigate the authenticity of her medical certificates. A government panel will review her case and report in two weeks. Khedkar claims a media trial against her and insists that "truth will prevail."
