During an off-the-cuff conversation with a friend, I learnt how she was intending to pursue a B.Ed. (Bachelor of Education). Curious, I enquired further and in due course learnt, that the B.Ed. shall be pursued from the comfort of her home. The catch was, this was a full-time course from a university based in another state.<\/p>\n<p>I was taken aback. I have heard of such frauds and seen them regularly in terms of data and statistics in our company, since that\u2019s what we do, sieve the charlatans. However, someone known to me, indulging in such an unlawful course of action, left me bewildered. I decided to take advantage of the situation to \u2018educate\u2019 myself in tricks these \u2018Masters in Fraud and Deceit\u2019 undertake. So, I probed and delved deeper into this unlawful racket.<\/p>\n<p>It was shocking to learn that to acquire these degrees from reputed universities, you have to pay a premium way beyond the regular fees. The attendance is taken care of, as you sit in your cozy homes idling away time, your attendance is being marked all the way in another state, day after day. At the end of each semester, you just have to go and write an exam, which is pretty much rigged, irrespective of how you perform, you will be awarded a first class degree, at the end of the course. Apparently, it&#8217;s part of the package! You shall then be awarded, a degree, in this case, B.Ed. and go and join some school, where you shall be given the responsibility of teaching children. In other cases, maybe go and work in the corporate sector or some other work setting, depending on the degree you\u2019ve acquired.<\/p>\n<p>That was not the end of my inquisitiveness, I further probed, what if the employing organization conducted a background verification check and the degree came under the scanner. To which I learnt, potential candidates have a feeling that it\u2019s only the blue-chip companies that invest in background verification services, mid to small level organization, don\u2019t undertake them. Which I must highlight is not true, this is sheer ignorance on the part of the candidate in question.<\/p>\n<p>Now let\u2019s fast forward a tad bit, this candidate might be in future teaching your child at school, college or university. Candidates such as these may be your potential employee dealing with sensitive data, making important deals or in a client facing profile. Candidates such as these are employed in hospitals, police stations, law firms; every place, where a degree can be fabricated.<\/p>\n<p>The problem is amplified by an increasing number of bogus institutions operating pan India and having networks in reputed universities and institutions. It&#8217;s never been easier to fake a professional-looking degree, or to obtain one on the internet.<\/p>\n<p><span class='bctt-click-to-tweet'><span class='bctt-ctt-text'><a href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jantakhoj.com%2Fblog%2F%3Fp%3D2587&#038;text=India%20has%20the%20disreputable%20label%20of%20being%20the%20centriole%20of%20the%20highest%20number%20of%20cases%20of%20employment-related%20inconsistencies%2C%20education%20being%20a%20major%20chunk%20of%20the%20pie.%20&#038;related' target='_blank'rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">India has the disreputable label of being the centriole of the highest number of cases of employment-related inconsistencies, education being a major chunk of the pie.  <\/a><\/span><a href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jantakhoj.com%2Fblog%2F%3Fp%3D2587&#038;text=India%20has%20the%20disreputable%20label%20of%20being%20the%20centriole%20of%20the%20highest%20number%20of%20cases%20of%20employment-related%20inconsistencies%2C%20education%20being%20a%20major%20chunk%20of%20the%20pie.%20&#038;related' target='_blank' class='bctt-ctt-btn'rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click To Tweet<\/a><\/span>What makes it easy for deceivers is that as per a rough estimate, there are about 2500 fake universities and 7500 fake companies in existence in India. What is alarming is that not only bogus universities but reputed institutes are involved in this sham of issuing forged certificates.<\/p>\n<p>While Uttar Pradesh tops the list of bogus universities operating in the state, Karnataka has recorded the highest number of employment background inconsistency cases.
