Two held for selling fake polytechnic question papers

Following a tip-off that some people were duping students by selling fake question papers of the polytechnic entrance examination, a policeman posing as a decoy customer approached the two youths and arrested them in Govindnagar yesterday.

One of the arrested, Ankur, has completed B Tech from a private engineering college here and runs a coaching institute, while other, Himanshu Nandan, is preparing for medical entrance examinations.

The seized papers did not match with the original question paper of the polytechnic entrance examination held yesterday.
