The trainee IAS officer Pooja Khedkar is under scrutiny as the authenticity of her disability certificate is being questioned. Authorities are investigating the details of where the certificate was issued, the district it was obtained from, and the doctor and hospital involved in the examination.

This major development has led to a thorough investigation by the Pune Police. A letter from the Office of the Disability Commissioner has been sent to the Pune Police and District Collector, requesting a detailed inquiry into the certificate. The investigation was prompted by concerns raised by the association of disabled persons, who urged the authorities to verify the legitimacy of Pooja Khedkar's disability certificate.
