Maharashtra Schools Ordered to Re-upload Staff Documents Due to Scam
Imagine a scam where people made fake IDs for teachers to steal money.
In Maharashtra, someone did just that using a system called Shalarth ID.
Now, all schools must re-upload important documents of their staff to make sure everything is correct.
This includes documents from teachers hired between 2012 and 2025.
The government is checking everything to catch the people who made the fake IDs and stop the fraud.
Some schools aren't happy because they feel they already gave all the information before.
