Kolar govt teacher suspected of producing fake disability certificate to land job 25 yrs ago, probe ordered

The official added that “despite the medical board giving a couple of deadlines to Paramesh to appear for the fitness test, he did not turn up. Once again, the health and family welfare department has written to the medical board to set another date for the fitness test. We are waiting for that to happen.”

The official said the complaint against Paramesh could also be a fallout of a ‘property dispute’. He added that Paramesh will be sacked if it is found that he is not disabled.

A government school teacher in Kolar said, “I know Paramesh personally and I also know that he is perfectly fit. The entire teaching community in Kolar is aware that Paramesh has produced a fake disability certificate to get a government job. He has been working for almost 25 years and at the time of his appointment, technology was not so efficient and verification of documents happened manually. In fact, producing a disability certificate can directly land one a government job and it also helps one get an additional medical allowance. He is also a farmer and is dealing with a lot of personal problems. It is important that the government takes action against him immediately.”
