INDORE : Daughter of an Uttar Pradesh MLA has been accused of resorting to unfair means to pass MBBS examination. Bhawarkuan police in its initial investigations and on the primary evidences provided by Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya (DAVV) have found the student under scanner only to realize she is the daughter of Hardoi MLA Rajeshwari Devi.

Evidences strongly suggest that the student at Index Medical College, Reema Verma allegedly tampered with answer-sheet to enhance her marks through fraudulent means. She has been booked under IPC sections 419, 420, 467, 468 and 471.

Bhawarkuan police station in charge Rajendra Soni, said, “We have now zeroed in on the university employees who might have played a key role in helping her to gain access to her answer sheet at the university. Without their connivance it wouldn’t have been possible to find answer sheet at evaluation centre and tamper with it.”

DAVV, after doing its investigations, had submitted a report to police last month. Central Evaluation Centre in charge Dr VB Gupta said, “The student had failed in one of the papers. Marks were uploaded. Later, on a tip-off we found that answer-sheet was tampered. The answer sheet was re-stitched by replacing the original one.” He added that the invigilator’s signature did not match and the hurry in which the stitching was done, is evidence of some foul play.

According to sources, the case indicates that a big racket is operating at the DAVV, which is bringing bad reputation to the university. Earlier, in July, entry locks on back-door of Central Evaluation Centre were found broken. Only a torch that the accused used to enter discreetly at the centre was found as evidence.
