The REET 2021 examination, which has been under the public and judiciary scrutiny due to paper leak and allegations of cheating, had faced another challenge this week with a fake marksheet going viral on social media.

The mark sheet, which was shown to be of Ram Kumar, showed a score of 151 out of 150. Social Media users have been raising alarms on the cheating allegations as well as faulty scoring. However, Rajendra Gupta, Deputy Director of PR at the RBSE in his statement to media said that the viral mark sheet is a fake.

“The viral mark sheet is fake. The mark sheet of Ram Kumar has a form number starting from 74, while the board has not filled the forms in the series. The roll number, as well as the parents’ name written on the mark sheet of Ram Kumar, has been checked with the board for which no record has been found.” – Rajendra Gupta, Deputy Director, PR Dept., RBSE.

The results of the REET (Rajasthan Teachers Eligibility Test) 2021 examination which was conducted in September and partly in October were declared on 2 November. Govind Soni of Udaipur and Ajay Vaishnav of Ajmer topped the Level 1 category with 148 marks out of 150.

The fake mark sheet showed it to be of Ram Kumar, son of Bhikha Ram and Mohini Devi.
