Karnataka MBBS Admission Scam: 3 doctors arrested for disability quota fraud
Advertisement
A major racket involving fake Unique Disability ID (UDID) cards has been exposed in Karnataka, where medical aspirants submitted fraudulent documents to obtain the UDID card and secure MBBS seats under the disability quota.
The scam operated across districts, including Koppal, Hosapete, and Bengaluru, and has now led to multiple arrests of doctors and officials. The first arrest was an ophthalmologist from the Mangaluru Village Primary Health Centre in Koppal. He was taken into custody by Malleswaram police on September 10 for allegedly issuing fake UDID cards to medical aspirants.
