Mahbabul Hoque, Chancellor of the University of Science and Technology Meghalaya (USTM), was arrested by Assam police from his residence in Guwahati early on Saturday morning in connection with alleged irregularities in CBSE examinations.
Following his arrest, Hoque told reporters that he had been summoned by the police for not allowing students to resort to cheating. 바카라I haven바카라t received the FIR copy. I don바카라t know anything more,바카라 he said.
Assam바카라s Education Minister, Ranoj Pegu, took to X on February 2, stating that shocking allegations of unethical practices in education had surfaced. 바카라Students were reportedly assured assistance in the 30-mark MCQ section of their CBSE Class 12 exams at Central Public School, Patharkandi, which is owned by the USTM group. Many were strategically placed there to gain an unfair advantage in exams,바카라 Pegu said.
바카라When external invigilators refused to comply, chaos ensued바카라teachers were locked inside, prompting police intervention,바카라 Pegu added.
On February 22, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma revealed that authorities had been monitoring the racket for a long time. 바카라Ahead of examinations, the examination centres of students were changed to certain schools. By promising 30 extra marks in CBSE exams, 247 students from Goalpara, Nagaon, and Kamrup districts were taken to Patharkandi. When the students did not get the facility (that was allegedly promised), they created a ruckus, thus bringing the racket to light,바카라 Sarma said.
바카라I said before that this man (Hoque) is a big fraud. His history is all about fraud. He was trying to mislead people by taking along a section of intellectuals of Assam. We will make efforts to ensure that education is not converted into a market in Assam,바카라 he added.
