AIIMS student,intern among 3 held for RajNEET fraud

Jaipur: A final-year MBBS student of AIIMS Jodhpur and a medical intern from Bharatpur were among three persons arrested Friday for alleged involvement in a dummy candidate racket in NEET-UG 2020 exam, police said. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Jaipur DCP (West) Amit Kumar identified the student as Sachin Gaura (22), intern as Ajit Gaura (30) and the third suspect as Subhash Saini (33). Ajit has completed his MBBS and is interning at Shri Jagannath Pahadia Medical College, Bharatpur, while Saini is posted as a community health officer in Jaipur. All three are residents of Jaipur's Chomu. Sachin allegedly paid Rs 60 lakh to Saini to arrange the impersonation. Saini was previously arrested in a 2013 exam fraud of Rs 65 lakh. Kumar said a case was registered after it emerged that Ajit may have appeared in NEET 2020 in place of Sachin. Sachin's admit card featured Ajit's photograph, and the impersonation helped Sachin to score 667 marks and secure an All-India Rank of 1,443 — good enough for admission to AIIMS Jodhpur. "Ajit had cleared NEET in 2019 after eight years of preparation. Ironically, while he had struggled with backlogs during his MBBS, Sachin, who never took the exam himself, is performing well at AIIMS," DCP Kumar said. The investigators are ascertaining if it was Ajit or someone else who had appeared on behalf of Sachin in the test, Kumar said. Saini, an ayurvedic doctor, allegedly used forged documents and his contacts to facilitate the fraud. The investigators have sought records from National Testing Agency (NTA) — which conducts NEET — AIIMS Jodhpur and Pahadia Medical College. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Last month, cops busted another racket in Jaipur's Chomu involving dummy candidates and hi-tech devices. That case led to the arrests of five people, including two postgraduate students from the National Institute of Ayurveda and a first-year MBBS student from Karnataka allegedly trying to field a dummy candidate in this year's NEET-UG exam. Their plans were foiled by a police raid. "Saini is a habitual offender. We suspect there's a major cheating racket in Chomu given this is the second time in 30 days that we busted another NEET fraud," said an officer.

Months before completing MBBS, AIIMS Jodhpur man held over 'dummy candidate' use in NEET exam

Barely months before his MBBS course was to be completed in AIIMS Jodhpur, a man was allegedly found to have paid for a "dummy candidate" in his National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET-UG) in 2020, officials said on Friday. Rajasthan Police has arrested him and a doctor for the fraud. Another doctor working as a health officer in Ghatwa, Nagaur was detained in connection with the case, they said. Jaipur Deputy Commissioner of Police (West) Amit Kumar said a report was received from the National Examination Agency, New Delhi that Sachin Gora who scored 667 marks in NEET UG-2020 never appeared for the exam and used a "dummy candidate". The DCP said the agency found that the photo of Dr Ajit Gora was used in Sachin's admit card. Sachin is currently a final year student at AIIMS Jodhpur Medical College. Dr Subhash Saini who now works as a health officer in Ghatwa allegedly involved Ajit in the fraud and took money for it. Ajit is currently doing the compulsory one-year internship after completing his MBBS from Bharatpur Medical College. As per initial investigation, a deal of ₹60 lakh was fixed to make the "dummy candidate" clear the test. Police have arrested Sachin and Ajit and detained Saini. During interrogation, police said they found that Saini had taken ₹65 lakh in 2013 to get a person clear the NEET-PG exam. Police had then arrested six people in connection to the case.
