Exam 'fraud': PEB blacklists two colleges, files FIR against 5 candidates

BHOPAL: Professional Examination Board (PEB) - the erstwhile Vyapam - has blacklisted two colleges and filed an FIR against five candidates of the Primary Teacher Eligibility Test (2020), held in March, for allegedly using unfair means. Investigators believe someone remotely solved the paper for them via an app.

One of the blacklisted colleges is owned by a minister. PEB will use neither of the colleges to hold exams now.

Prior to the FIR, Madhya Pradesh State Electronic Development Corporation conducted an investigation.
