The Supreme Court has granted a special task force four months more to conclude its probe into the Vyapam scam in Madhya Pradesh.
The apex court granted the extension after the STF pleaded that it was still investigating 28 out of the 55 FIRs registered in the scam.
The Vyapam scam involved the Madhya Pradesh Professional Examination Board or Vyapam, which holds the exams for positions like medical officers, constables, teachers and auditors for government departments.
The candidates allegedly bribed government officials to make it to the list of those who cleared the test.
