The process of interview to screen the aspirants turned mainly in establishing the authenticity of their certificates. Shocking for the panel, most of them had fake certificates. This is what happened in recently concluded interviews for various posts vis-à-vis Class-IV in March at Leh and in April at Jammu and for the post of Drivers in April at Leh among others. The interviews was conducted by Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development-Subordinate Service Recruitment Board, Leh (LAHD-SSRB)
According to reports during these interviews the interviewing committee was shocked to stumble upon a huge number of fake certificates produced by some of the candidates that were affiliated to various boards/ institutions of different parts of the country.
District Magistrate, Saugat Biswas who is the Chairman of the LAHD-SSRB, during the course of the interviews inspected almost each and every certificate which appeared to be fake through the internet based verification systems of various boards. On questioning various candidates even agreed to have paid agents for obtaining such certificates.
“Prima-facie it appears that many students who drop out of regular studies approach such well established nexus of touts and agents outside the State and obtain fake certificates of State Boards on hefty payments. We have sent the cases detected during the course of these interviews to the district police for further investigation. We shall if needed approach the police department of other states to catch hold of such agents with a view to curbing this heinous practice” said Biswas.
District Magistrate, Leh has alerted the general public to refrain from such practices which would land them in serious trouble of imprisonment under the law. He also expressed the apprehension that such practice must be on with students of other districts of J&K. “The recruitment agencies must be on an alert while appointing candidates. Certificate verification as well as Board verification has taken prime importance in this age of technological development when forgery of documents have become relatively easier and inexpensive” he said during interaction with the media.
According to a report posted on internet on the topic Educational Frauds in India: Fake Universities, the high rate of unemployment in our country and the exorbitant costs of higher education further fuel the educational fraud rackets, selling forged certificates to the students and job seekers, with the right low on morals and the necessary criminal streak to avail a shortcut to success. It has been found that, not only bogus universities, but also the names of reputed institutes and boards are being used by the forged certificates racket.
