If anyone is interested to help him, please contact me. I have initiated to raise fund for him. Wherever possible I am sharing his story. He is one of my friends classmate. He is not seeking help but still it is our duty to save a Farmer. All the professionals, students and whomsoever in the city are dependent on them. Without them we all cannot...I hope you all understand what I meant. (posted as on Nov 30th 2013). Successful clean candidates wait for elusive jobs BANGALORE: This seems to be a case of deserving government job aspirants paying for the misdeeds of a few black sheep among them: 337 people selected by the KPSC for the post of gazetted probationers in 2011 are yet to get postings though they have been given a clean chit by the CID. At the end of a four-month probe, the CID concluded that only 25 of the 362 successful candidates bribed their way through the selection process. Following this, the government decided to revalue the answer scripts of these 337 clean candidates and repeat their interviews. However, KPSC, a constitutional body, shot down the governments proposal. Facing an uncertain future, the successful candidates are wondering whether all the midnight oil they burned to get selected for their dream posts was worth it. The uncertainty has even acquired traumatic tones as in the case of Manjunath RG, 32. The only son of farmer Gowdaiah and Topamma from Bidinagare in Kunigal taluk of Tumkur district, Manjunath was among the 25 toppers chosen for class I posts. Manjunath had raised Rs 10-lakh loan for his studies and prepared for the exams when Gowdaiahs showed signs of deteriorating health. Gowdaiahs dream was to see his son become a class I government officer. My father refused to go to the doctor till my exams were over. When the results were out, he was overjoyed, recalls Manjunath. Banking on his good results, Manjunath was happy that his difficult days were over and he could look after his parents. But that was not to be. His 70-year-old father was soon diagnosed with blood cancer and is undergoing chemotherapy at MS Ramaiah Hospital. Each chemotherapy session costs the family Rs 60,000. I am paying for no mistake of mine, Manjunath said, adding, Its not only me. This is the question of other honest candidates who have cleared the 2011 KPSC exams and are waiting for a posting. Forget about providing a life of comfort to my parents, I am taking my ailing father in a KSRTC bus from Kunigal to Bangalore for treatment. It is very difficult for him to travel back after the session, he said. Top scores in UPSC A meritorious candidate, Manjunath holds an MSc in organic chemistry. He figured among the top seven scorers from Karnataka in the 2012 UPSC exams. But he fell short of 29 marks in the interview.
