The government has stopped the recruitment process of Class IV employees in the district cooperative banks of Uttarakhand after complaints of illegal recruitment came to light.
Sources say the state government may soon issue an order for an investigation in the case.
The recruitment process was going on for the last one month for about 400 posts of class IV employees in ten district cooperative banks of the state. The management of the banks had been accused of taking lakhs of rupees from applicants.
On Monday, Registrar (Co-operative Societies) BM Mishra issued orders to postpone the recruitment process with immediate effect.
