Ready reckoner

Vyapam Maha Ghotala, a book by former MLA Paras Saklecha, is in huge demand these days, particularly among journalists camping in Bhopal to dig deeper into the Vyapam scam. The book, which contains a detailed account of Madhya Pradesh's examination and recruitment fraud, has become a sort of ready reckoner for them. Its author, Saklecha, contested the 2014 general elections from the Mandsaur seat unsuccessfully on an Aam Aadmi Party ticket. He has been given the title of the scam's first official whistle-blower.
