Special Operation Group of Police in Rajasthan today claimed to have busted an inter-state gang which allegedly assured people jobs in the Centre's Janani Surkasha Yojana and arrested two of its members from Delhi.

25-year-old Pappu and Manish (28) were caught yesterday from their homes in Delhi by a team of SOG, Dr Alok Tripathi, Additional Director General SOG and ATS said.

The gang's woman member Sakshi Thakur was arrested earlier from Meerut. The police are trying to track down other suspects, the ADG said.

Using fake letter heads of Union Ministry of Health and Family welfare, the gang recently issued fake "appointment letters" to aspiring candidates for huge sums in several states including Rajasthan, the ADG said.
 

The gang also asked aspiring candidates to deposit heavy amount as a security money for getting jobs, he said.

Rajasthan's Medical and Health Department's Mission Director recently brought this matter before the SOG following which the probe was launched, he said.

Further probe is underway, the ADG added.
