:A few days before they appeared for the EAMCET- 2, a common entrance test for admission to medical and dental colleges, more than 70 students from Telangana caught flights out to Mumbai, Bengaluru and Kanigiri in Andhra Pradesh, in multiple batches, a police investigation has revealed.
In hotels in these cities, these students were allegedly handed question papers and their answers for the competitive examination that is conducted for seats in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.
The students returned to their homes just before the exam and scored marks far better than their academic record would suggest, police sources said.
The police, who have arrested four people, believe each student paid 10 to 30 lakh rupees for getting access to the questions before the exam in a multi-crore scam.
Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao has called a meeting today and is expected to be decided whether the examination will be held again. Parents have protested. "It is harrowing. They should just take out those found guilty and follow merit for the rest,'' a parent Eashwar Reddy said.
