Agra Teacher Faces FIR Over Alleged Job Fraud and Retirement Benefit IrregularitiesPreviousNext

A 60-year-old retired assistant teacher from a government-aided school in Agra faces an FIR for allegedly securing his job through fraud nearly four decades ago. An inquiry found that Dinesh Chandra's appointment in 1985-86 involved falsified documents and assistance from his brother, then the college principal. The probe also examines irregularities in Chandra's retirement benefits, including unauthorized payment approval by a former manager whose term had ended before 2021.
