Exams, medical tests, 3-month training. Then they learnt there were no FCI jobs

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has launched an investigation into a government recruitment racket in Haryana, where job seekers were allegedly tricked into paying large sums of money for fake job opportunities in the Food Corporation of India (FCI) and other government institutions. Eight accused individuals from Haryana have been booked in the case.

The alleged scam involved staging written examinations, hospital medical tests, police verification procedures, and a three-month training program, all staged to give the impression of legitimate job opportunities. The victims were promised jobs ranging from supervisor positions to peon positions, with the accused demanding payments from Rs 7 lakh to Rs 14 lakh, depending on the position.
