The Maharashtra government has sent Maharashtra Public Service Commission (MPSC) Chairman Vivek Bhimanwar on compulsory leave until the completion of the inquiry into the alleged paper leak case. This comes after an 11-day-long protest by aspirants in Pune, demanding his resignation.

As per ANI, the decision of sending Bhimanwar on a compulsory leave marks a significant development in the agitation led by NCP (Sharadchandra Pawar) MLA Rohit Pawar at the S M Joshi Bridge in Pune.
