Uttarakhand’s medical admission process has come under scrutiny over allegations of fake certificates being used to secure MBBS seats, with a Special Investigation Team (SIT) of Dehradun Police now probing the alleged fraud involving freedom fighter dependent certificates.
The controversy began after journalist Pradeep Bahuguna raised questions over certificates submitted by candidates seeking benefits under the state quota and special categories. Bahuguna has submitted a list of around 350 candidates whose documents he wants authorities to verify, while stressing that he is not claiming all the certificates on the list are fake.
