Bhopal: In a significant development, Madhya Pradesh government on Friday reopened the infamous Vyapam scandal case involving admission of ‘ineligible’ students in various medical colleges in the state in the last one decade through corrupt means, by registering FIRs against three medicos who had taken recourse to unfair practices to pursue MBBS degree.
The special task force (STF) constituted by the state government to probe into complaints of alleged malpractices by some students to take admission in the different medical colleges in the state, not investigated by CBI, has found that several others involved in the scam could not be nailed so far.
