18 candidates were caught for allegedly producing fake documents at an Army recruitment rally in the district headquarters here, raising the number of such defaulters during the drive to 60.
"We have today sent to police the list of eighteen candidates, of whose documents, domicile and character certificate appeared to be doubtful and forged ", Director of the Kota Army recruitment office Colonel Kamal Uprati said.
The forged certificates were submitted by the candidates yesterday during the army recruitment rally which began here on November 27, he said.
The certificates were bearing the same stamp from Kota as of the 42 candidates who were caught for submitting fake documents on Saturday, he added.
The 18 candidates had cleared the preliminary tests on Saturday and were supposed to appear for medical test yesterday but they did not turn up for the exam thus raising doubts among the army officials, Uprati said.
However, Station House Officer (SHO), city Kotwali Tarun Kant Somani said that they have not received any list or complaint from the army officials so far.
