# MPSC leak probe commission sets Nov 16 deadline for submissions 2026-10-29T21:36:38+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 4 independent outlets The Maharashtra government has appointed a judicial commission of inquiry, headed by retired Allahabad High Court Chief Justice Dilip Bhosale, to investigate alleged question paper leaks and malpractices in nine MPSC competitive examinations held between 2023 and 2026. FDA Commissioner Tukaram Mundhe, the member-secretary, said the first meeting has been held and all hearings will be open to the public. Candidates, students and registered organisations have until 16 November 2026 to submit sworn affidavits in Marathi or English at the FDA building in Bandra-Kurla Complex, Mumbai, or by email to complaints.inquirycomm.mpsc@maharashtra.gov.in. Submissions will be kept confidential, the commission will later decide whether to call submitters as witnesses. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The four sources are uniform straight reporting on the formation and procedure of the MPSC inquiry commission. All name the same chairperson, scope, examination list and submission deadline. Differences are only in length and detail: the timesofindia.indiatimes.com adds the backdrop of the Pune protests and Mundhe's statement that the first meeting has already been held, while thehansindia.com provides the address format in two distinct lines. The coverage does not vary in framing across outlets, which leaves no editorial difference to analyse. The closed deadline and the commission's discretion on calling witnesses are what next, November 16 is the concrete date to watch. ## Coverage Coverage: 4 sources, 4 neutral - thehansindia.com (neutral report) Straight news reprint of official facts - ndtvprofit.com (neutral report) Condensed to only the basic announcement - timesofindia.indiatimes.com (neutral report) Adds Mundhe's press conference and protest context - thehindu.com (neutral report) Detailed report with exact examination list This brief was synthesised by AI from the 4 sources linked above, so one read covers every framing they carry.
