What happened
Devendra Fadnavis requested that Governor Jishnu Dev Varma set up a judicial commission to investigate alleged irregularities within the Maharashtra Public Service Commission (MPSC). This request followed protests by civil services aspirants across the state. The investigation is intended to probe the functioning of the current MPSC chairperson, Vivek Bhimanwar, and other commission members.

Why it matters
The request for a judicial probe targets the integrity of the MPSC, which manages recruitment for public sector roles in Maharashtra. The protests were sparked by a paper leak in MPSC recruitment examinations for the Food and Drug Administration inspector post in July.
