CBI Registers Case Against Five for Alleged Rs 2.41 Crore Haryana Job Fraud

The accused allegedly posed as relatives of a senior RSS leader and a former Vice President, conducting fake exams, medical tests, police verifications, and training to make the scam appear legitimate. Around 25 to 30 candidates were reportedly cheated, with payments ranging from Rs 8 lakh to Rs 14 lakh per job.
