Fake caste certificate: Why ACB's clean chit to retired IPS officer Kempaiah is no surprise

RTI activist Dinesh Kallahalli had lodged a complaint against Kempaiah that though the 1981 batch IPS officer belonged to Kuruba, a backward community, he had claimed himself to be a Kadu Kuruba that comes under the Scheduled Tribe (ST) community.
