Rajasthan Police arrested Rakesh Kumar Rewad, who had been absconding for over a year in connection with a sophisticated Bluetooth-based cheating racket in the Junior Clerk Grade-II recruitment examination. The accused was part of a network that used miniature Bluetooth devices hidden in candidates' ears to relay answers during the examination.
The arrest follows a sustained crackdown on exam fraud in Rajasthan, which has been plagued by multiple paper leak and cheating scandals in recent years. The state government has taken stringent measures including the Rajasthan Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Act to deter such malpractices. The case highlights the growing sophistication of cheating technologies and the challenges faced by examination authorities in maintaining exam integrity across multiple recruitment processes.
