OMR Scam: Another Arrest in Rajasthan Exam Fraud
20 Jul
Summary
- Another candidate arrested for manipulating exam OMR sheets.
- Allegedly altered OMR sheets during scanning process.
- Actual score was four marks, manipulated to 191.
In an ongoing investigation into the 2018 Laboratory Assistant Direct Recruitment Examination, the Rajasthan Special Operations Group (SOG) has apprehended another individual, Pankaj Kumar Saini. The arrest is linked to the alleged manipulation of OMR sheets, a process that reportedly involved tampering during the scanning of answer sheets to secure provisional selection for candidates.
SOG officials stated that Saini's OMR sheet was altered to show a score of 191 marks during the scanning by the agency Rabhav Limited. However, a subsequent scan by the Rajasthan Staff Selection Board revealed his actual score was only four marks. This incident follows earlier arrests of company employees, an executive director, and five other beneficiaries involved in the alleged scheme.
Authorities are continuing their investigation to fully ascertain the scope of the examination fraud and identify any further individuals involved, including additional beneficiaries and conspirators. The SOG aims to uncover the complete network behind this alleged manipulation.
