7 held in Rajasthan, Bihar for NEET impersonation
J aipur/Patna/Thiruvananthapuram : Seven people, including three medical students and a doctor, were arrested in Rajasthan and Bihar for being involved in impersonation fraud in NEET-UG, conducted on Sunday, while a woman in Kerala was taken into custody for handing over a fake admit card to a student. Jaipur police busted a racket involving dummy candidates and hi-tech cheating devices, and arrested five people, following information received from the special operations group. A raid at an apartment in Jagdamba Nagar in Karni Vihar led to the arrest of Ajit Kumar and Sohan Lal Chaudhary, both postgraduate students of National Institute of Ayurveda in Jaipur, and Jitendra Sharma, a first-year MBBS student from Karnataka with a background in Ayurveda. Police seized counterfeit admit cards, AI-edited photographs, Bluetooth earpieces, SIM cards and Rs 50,000 cash, which was allegedly received as advance payment. Two candidates, Rohit Gora and Sanjay Chaudhary, were taken into custody later for being involved in the plan. DCP Amit Kumar, who led the operation, said the racket was masterminded by the two PG students, motivated by the prospect of quick money. Sharma was allegedly prepared to impersonate Gora in NEET and Chaudhary in an upcoming paramedical test. In Bihar, Dr Ranjit Kumar, a doctor posted at Begusarai jail, and Rambabu Malik, a resident of Darbhanga, were arrested in Samastipur district on Sunday for being part of a cheating operation that involved tampering with admit cards and sending proxies to take the exam on the behalf of the candidates. "Two people were found sitting near an exam centre in a suspicious manner, and were questioned. On checking their mobile phones, we found the admit cards of several students. Both were arrested," additional SP Sanjay Pandey said. During interrogation, Dr Ranjit confessed that they had manipulated admit cards to send dummy candidates to appear for the exam. "They admitted to charging between Rs 2.5 lakh and Rs 5 lakh per candidate." In a separate operation launched on the night of May 3, Patna police raided hideouts linked to exam mafia Mithilesh Kumar, who evaded arrest, but three suspects were detained. An employee of Neyyattinkara Akshaya Centre in rural Thiruvananthapuram was arrested for fabricating the admit card of a student. Greeshma, a resident of Thirupuram, admitted during questioning that she accepted a payment of Rs 1,850 from the student's mother, who had approached the centre to apply for NEET, but failed to submit the application on time. When the student followed up, asking for the admit card, Greeshma got one forged to cover up her negligence. The forgery came to light when an invigilator at the Pathanamthitta exam centre noticed inconsistencies in the admit card. The student, who was arrested and questioned, told police that the admit card was handed over by the Akshaya Centre employee.
