Hunt on for attesting authority

Hunt on for attesting authority

The scrutiny committee is said to be investigating the role of one Dr Parate, Associate Professor of GMC, who attested the copy of the `fabricated' school leaving certificate of Keshaorao Bhobhate (Dr Bhobhate's father) - mentioning his caste as `Dhangad'. This copy was submitted by Dr Bhobhate to the scrutiny committee and was matched against the clinching document - the original school leaving certificate of his father (obtained by Police Vigilance Cell) which mentions the caste as `Dhangar'. Attesting important documents without verification is considered to be an offence.
