CBI Arrests Four in Delhi‑Bihar‑Haryana‑West Bengal Banking Recruitment Scam
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has dismantled a widespread impersonation and cheating network that operated across Delhi, Bihar, Haryana and West Bengal, and has arrested four key operatives, including a CGST inspector. The agency opened the case after a complaint from the Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS). Searches were conducted and the accused were taken into custody. According to the CBI, the conspirators had fraudulently entered multiple stages of the selection process—written examinations and interviews—by posing as candidates, thereby undermining the integrity of public examinations and depriving genuine aspirants of their rightful opportunities.
