UPSTF has uncovered multiple revelations regarding the CSIR-NET exam. An STF team conducted a search operation at the Exam Center of Subharti University, Meerut. During this operation, devices and several suspects were seized from the examination center. One accused has been apprehended and four individuals who were set to take the exam have been detained. Interrogations are ongoing.
Based on confidential information, UPSTF conducted a search operation at the Subharti University, Meerut exam center. During the search, an additional admin computer was found through the local area network from the server room of the examination lab. Two laptops with Anydesk remote access tools were also discovered in the server room. Additionally, an employee's exam-conducting mobile was found.
Evidence of Solver Gang
The mobile contained the names, roll numbers, and IP addresses of four candidates. This IP was shared with a person outside the center, facilitating screen sharing of these candidates' papers, which were being solved by an external solver. On June 25, during the first and second shifts, the names of 11 candidates were found from the deleted files in the mobile. Necessary legal proceedings are ongoing.
Exam Already Cancelled
