Fake degree links: RPSC revokes woman’s job offer
Jaipur: The Rajasthan Staff Selection Board has revoked its job offer to paper leak accused Bhupendra Saran’s girlfriend Priyanka Vishnoi on finding that she was earlier arrested for her involvement in a fake degree racket, officials said here on Friday. Education Minister BD Kalla has also instructed to take action against the committee that checked Priyanka’s documents and declared her eligible.
Priyanka was selected after she appeared for the Physical Training Instructor recruitment exam last year, the results for which were declared on Wednesday. The Education Dept, which was tasked with document verification, failed to trace Vishnoi’s criminal record and sent the final selection list, including her name, to the selection board, the officials said.
“When it became clear that it was the same Priyanka Vishnoi who was arrested in a fake degree case, we dropped her name from the list of final selection on Wednesday,” RSSB chairman Hari Prasad Sharma said.
