The Chhattisgarh Divyangjan Association has alleged that 127 government officers secured jobs using fake disability certificates. The association has submitted a detailed list to authorities, but no investigation has been initiated, raising serious questions about the state's commitment to justice and accountability.
One of the most high-profile cases involves Sanjay Kumar Markam, a Deputy Collector currently serving as Officer on Special Duty (OSD) to Chhattisgarh Health Minister Shyam Bihari Jaiswal. Markam's appointment under the disability quota is based on his claim of being hearing impaired. However, Radhakrishna Gopal, Vice President of Chhattisgarh Divyang Seva Sangh, told The Statesman: "We have filed complaints against Markam through multiple channels, but no investigation has been conducted so far. It appears he enjoys the patronage of influential individuals."
