Jaipur, May 26 (PTI) A depot manager of the Rajasthan State Beverages Corporation Limited has been arrested in connection with the Sub-Inspector (SI) recruitment exam-2021 paper leak case, officials said on Tuesday.
Lokendra Pandya (58), a resident of Dungarpur district, was arrested from his residence by the Rajasthan Police’s Special Operations Group.
Pandya was later produced before a court, which remanded him to police custody for two days for questioning.
Additional Director General (SOG) Vishal Bansal said further interrogation of Pandya is underway to uncover more links in the case.
According to the SOG officials, the case is linked to the alleged paper leak racket involving former Rajasthan Public Service Commission member Babulal Katara.
Investigations revealed that Lokendra’s brother, Kundan Kumar Pandya, had allegedly purchased the question papers for Rs 50 lakh.
Officials said Kundan had obtained the papers from Katara and shared them within the family.
Lokendra is accused of teaching the leaked papers to his son, daughter and niece ahead of the examination.
Kundan, a government school teacher, was arrested earlier in June 2025 along with his daughter and other relatives in the same case. PTI AG KSI KSI
