Significantly, the teacher recruitment examination was conducted in 2 shifts on Saturday by the Rajasthan Employee Selection Board। These teacher recruitment exams were conducted in the first phase ( class for first to fifth grade teacher ) and second level ( for teacher from sixth to eighth grade )। These exams were carried out from 9:30 am to 12:30 pm and from 3 pm to 5 pm। Deputy Commissioner of Police ( ex ) Amrita Duhan stated that the papers received from the arrested people are not meeting the actual paper। Duhan said that raids were carried out at Udaigarh Marriage Palace in Mandor area hours before the examination took place। He told that we had received secret information that the question paper has been leaked by some students living there। The police officer said that all the students caught were the first shift exams.
