Gwalior (Madhya Pradesh): A major fraud involving fake caste certificates has been uncovered in Madhya Pradesh, revealing that 25 government employees secured their jobs through these illegal documents.

Special Task Force (STF) received confidential information that led to an investigation. They identified individuals, including teachers, doctors, engineers, clerks and web developers, who had submitted fake Scheduled Caste certificates to gain employment.

The investigation revealed that an organised gang was behind this scheme, helping youth obtain government jobs by creating fake documents.
