Teacher who retired in 2021 faces FIR over job fraud

A long time ago, a man named Dinesh Chandra got a job as a teacher at a school in Agra.

He worked there for many years and retired in 2021, receiving the money and benefits that retired teachers get.

Now, officials say the job may have been gotten unfairly.

They think his brother, who was the principal of the school then, helped him get the job.

Teachers are usually chosen by a committee, and helping a relative get a job that way is against the rules.

A complaint about the unfair appointment was made by the school's manager.

After looking into it, officials found problems and decided to register a case, called an FIR, against the teacher.

Because so much time has passed, investigating what really happened so long ago can be difficult.

But now the former teacher may have to answer questions about how he got his job nearly four decades ago.
