New Delhi: Two professors have come under the scanner after 18 D Pharma students at Uttar Pradesh’s Veer Bahadur Singh Purvanchal University in Jaunpur passed their exam with flying colours. They had written ‘Jai Shri Ram’, the names of prominent crickets and other irrelevant details as their answers.

According to an Aaj Tak report, the incident came to light after two student leaders filed an RTI and sought re-evaluation of exam papers. They alleged that the professors had taken bribes from the students to pass them. The duo also filed a complaint with the Raj Bhavan. The Governor’s office had consequently ordered an investigation into the matter in late December last year.
