Actually, Dakya's wife bought the question papers for her brother. Later, she together with her husband sold the papers to other aspirants of the Telangana government job recruitment examination. The TSPSC job scam surfaced in March and led to the cancellation of the Group 1, Assistant Engineers (AEs), AEE, and DAO exams. An assistant section officer and a network admin at TSPSC played a key role in the leak of these question papers which created a huge sensation in the State.
