Authorities in Ladakh region of Jammu and Kashmir today warned job aspirants against producing fake certificates during recruitment in various departments.
District Magistrate of Leh Saugat Biswas issued the warning after it came to light that some of the candidates produced fake certificates in the recently held interviews conducted by the Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council-Subordinate Service Recruitment Board (LAHDC-SSRB), for various Class-IV posts including drivers.
"The general public has been alerted to refrain from such practices (producing fake certificates) which would land them in serious trouble of imprisonment under the law," Biswas, who is the Chairman of the LAHDC-SSRB, said.
"Prima-facie, it appears that many students who drop out of regular studies approach such well established nexus of touts and agents outside the state and obtain fake certificates of State Boards on hefty payments.
"We have sent the cases detected during the course of the interviews to the district police for further investigation," he said.
