The Uttarakhand government has broadened its investigation into forged NEET certificates, leading to the cancellation of eight student admissions in state medical colleges.
Uttarakhand’s higher education authorities have expanded their probe into forged NEET certificates after earlier findings raised concerns about the integrity of the admission process.
The investigation, conducted by the state medical education board, revealed that eight students had submitted falsified documents to secure seats in government medical colleges.
Consequently, the board has annulled the admissions and is reviewing its selection procedures to prevent similar fraud in the future.
Officials stated that the inquiry will continue, with potential legal action against those involved.
