Vyapam Scam in Madhya Pradesh India
India is a nation
where there is a very huge population. In fact, if considered in world
perspective, then it is one of the leaders in terms of not only economy but
also population, unemployment and scams. The same happened in case of the
Vyapam scam. Vyapam had the responsibility of conducting competitive exams and
tests. There were supposed to be conducted and held on a very large scale to
accommodate a number of aspiring candidates. However, do not mistaken that
these exams were for admission into any educational institute.
These were tests
that would help to establish if someone was worthy of being given a government
job. India is a nation where government jobs are highly sought after and that
is what led to this shocking scam in the world’s largest democracy.
VYAPAM Results were Tampered with
The Vyapam scam has
been reported a scam where the tests were held just fine. But, the results were
tampered with. This means that the end scores provided to the applicants were
not fair at all. It was unjust and that is why the lives of a number were
affected. Reportedly, there was collusion among the exam participants, the
government officials and other middlemen who had a role to play. The applicants
who did not deserve high marks, were awarded so in return for kickbacks. This
was definitely a large sum of money that was taken as bribe. When the scam came
to light, the following tricks were identified as the ones put to use.
Impersonation in VYAPAM
This
is not something new or shocking. What happened was the very good and bright
students or those people who had been practising for years, were paid to take
the exams instead of the actual candidates. Thus, they used their expert
knowledge to impersonate others and write the papers on their behalf.
If you
and wondering how it is possible with the use of proper identity cards, then
you must know that the board members were also involved.
The photographs on the
card were changed after the exam was over.
Copying in VYAPAM
It
is obvious that there was mass scale cheating and copying. There was no check
on the use of unfair means.
Reportedly, the candidates who did not deserve to
be there at all, bribed the board officials to be seated next to a brilliant and
impersonated candidate. This was done through the help of a number of middlemen
and the strategic seating was obviously a very well planned move.
In fact, the
extent of this was such that they were also seen exchanging their answer
scripts at the end of the examination.
Manipulation of records and answer sheets
Most
of these exams were taken on OMR sheets so that it would same time. However,
this is exactly what was used to manipulate the results. They would leave blank
spaces and answer only what they were sure of. Then, they would randomly be
awarded a very high percentage.
In order to make it look more genuine, they
would file for an RTI and then fill in the answers according to the high
percentage that they received as a result of paying bribes.
Leaking the answer key
Last
but not the least, it is also said that some of the board officials, who were
corrupt, were the ones who leaked the answer key to some particular applicants.
No matter what, people have their eyes on the court of law.
