FORMER Congress Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi was not available for comment today but it was his government that fueled the rising fortunes of Rakesh Kumar Paul, the chief of the Assam Public Service Commission, who was arrested last Friday under the Prevention of Corruption Act. From giving him the top job despite questions over his eligibility to stalling a probe in the face of court orders, the Gogoi government looked the other way as complaints piled up. Including from a top Vigilance official who alleged way back in 2013 that Paul was running a jobs bazaar. In 2008, when Paul was named APSC member, many in the Congress were surprised because eligibility criteria called for an outstanding and competent candidate and Pauls legal prowess wasnt so well-known. What was known, however, was that he was secretary of Satsang Vihar, a religious institution which has a fairly large Bengali Hindu (read voters) following across Assam.
