BHOPAL: Mushrooming coaching schools in Uttar Pradesh have become breeding ground of Munnabhais, who helped students crack pre-medical tests conducted by Vyapam, now a catchword for a mammoth admission and recruitment scam.
More than 90% of Vyapam solvers hail from coaching institutes from Lucknow, Allahabad and Kanpur. These solvers were imposters who appeared for other students in pre-medical test, said Virendra Jain, additional SP, Gwalior.
"We did not know much about them as they were known with monikers like Pinku, Chiku, Chotoo, among others. It took us one-and-half years to track Shibbu, one of the solvers. But majority of them were from coaching institutes in UP," said Jain.
