- 16 - Cr.MP(M) 1205 of 2010. 10.11.2010 Present: Mr. Bimal Gupta, counsel for the petitioner. Mr. Vikas Rathore, DAG, and Mr. Ramesh Thakur, Asstt. AG, for the respondent. Heard and gone through the record. Petitioner, after obtaining B.Sc. degree from H.P. University, purportedly obtained B.Ed. degree from Bundelkhand University, Jhansi and on the strength of that B.Ed. degree, he sought employment of Trained Graduate Teacher (Science). Initially, he was appointed on contract basis and then his services were regularized as TGT (Science). After the regularization of his services, it came to notice that his B.Ed. degree was not genuine. Matter was reported to the police. Police investigated and found that the petitioner had never appeared for examination of B.Ed., conducted by Bundelkhand University, and the Marks Sheet submitted by him for obtaining job, was fake. Writing, to this effect, was issued by the Bundelkhand University authorities, on a request made by the police. Petitioner’s counsel submits that the petitioner had gone to Jhansi, after seeing an advertisement in a paper. That advertisement, according to him, had been issued by an educational institution. He studied in that - 17 - -2- institution and applied for examination to the University, through that institution and also took the examination. According to learned counsel, if the Marks Sheet is really forged, then the petitioner himself has been cheated by the aforesaid educational institution. Looking to the facts of the case, as also the fact that menace of forged and fake certificates and degrees has attained alarming proportions, I am of the considered view that provision of Section 438 Cr.P.C. is not meant for the accused, involved in this kind of cases. Hence, petition is dismissed. November 10, 2010(PC). (Surjit Singh), J.
