The court had earlier asked the petitioner to explain why he wanted the matter to be investigated by the CBI when a probe by the Special Task Force is already underway.

The court had also asked the petitioner to explain his locus standi or the right to bring forth the PIL before the court.
Recruitment in many important departments including education, police, forest and rural development had been made by the UKSSSC, Kapri claimed in his petition.
These recruitments must also be looked into in the light of the alleged scam, he had said in his petition.
He had demanded a CBI probe into the irregularities for the sake of fairness, alleging the involvement of influential people of Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand in them.
