New Delhi: A competitive college admission season with cut-offs as high as 100 per cent. And three men, made life simple for students wanting to get in to some of Delhi's top colleges. But their racket was busted by the Delhi Police crime branch last week. Now for the first time, CNN-IBN managed to speak to the parent of one such student.
Father of one of the students said, "They used to hang around tutorial centers and ask students how much they got. That's how my son got attracted and gave in."
What this gentleman tells us is some thing that the Delhi Police corroborates. Tutorials in the capital were the favorite hunting ground for these racketeers. This is where they would approach students and promise them admission in reputed colleges thanks to fake certificates like these. Over the last two years this gang managed to get more than 40 students admitted in this manner.
Documents available with CNN-IBN show this student scored 82.67 per cent and got admitted to Delhi's Kirorimal college. It was a certificate that got him through which fraudulently showed him to be a member of the SC community.
One of the parents however says, he withdrew his son from this college. The onus, he says, should be on the colleges.
While this parent says his son is innocent and was tricked into the racket, the police is still not ruling out possible action against him and other parents as well as the students. What's clear, this case will not stop at just three arrests.
