Lucknow, Dec 17 (TIWN) The Uttar Pradesh Special Task Force (UPSTF) has arrested a medical practitioner who masterminded the UP Teacher Eligibility Test (UPTET-2021) paper leak for big kickbacks.
The accused doctor, Santosh Chaurasia, was arrested from Mawaiya Metro station in Alambagh in Lucknow on Wednesday evening. Chaurasia has eight cases lodged against him in Gwalior, Indore and Jabalpur for his role in the Vyapam scam that rocked Madhya Pradesh less than a decade ago. Days after the UPTET paper leak, Chaurasia’s name cropped up as an accused and an FIR was registered against him in Kaushambhi district, which served as a scam gateway to eastern Uttar Pradesh. Sources saidthat he was in touch with the tainted exam controller, Sanjay Kumar Upadhyay, who was posted in neighbouring Prayagraj.
