3rd 'Anamika' arrested for using forged documents; 'Priti Yadavs' in scam now

Lucknow: Yet another 'Anamika Shukla', whose real name is Babli Yadav, has been arrested for using forged documents to work as a teacher in the Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV).

Meanwhile, multiple persons have been found using the name and documents of one "Priti Yadav' to work as teachers in the KGBV.

Babli Yadav is the third woman to have been arrested, so far, in the scam in which 25 women were appointed as science teachers under the same name.

The third Anamika –Babli Yadav – was arrested by the Aligarh Police almost a week after the first Anamika (Supriya) was arrested from Kasganj on June 6.

After her arrest, Babli disclosed the identities of two more Anamikas, including that of her sister-in-law Sarita Yadav, who was appointed in the Soraon block in Prayagraj, while the second woman lives close to her house in Kanpur (Dehat) and was appointed in the KGBV in Baghpat.

Babli told the police that she had paid Rs three lakh to the main accused, Pushpendra Yadav, for her appointment at Aligarh's KGBV.

Babli claimed that she was provided with all fake documents, including Aadhaar Card, at the time of counseling in Aligarh. A fake bank account was also opened at the Central Bank's Rasulabad branch in the name of Anamika Shukla and she was appointed at Bijauli block's school on October 21, 2019.
