Kanpur Job Fraud: In Kanpur, a major case of cheating students on the pretext of getting a job if they complete their course has come to light. Under the garb of a promising aviation course and job in Kanpur city, the company duped more than 200 students of lakhs of rupees by neither completely administering the course nor fulfilling its promise of an assured placement. Now, the aggrieved female students have appealed to the police commissioner after which the police have begun investigating the case.
Eptech Learning Institute Accused Of Forgery
Many new institutes promising students a guaranteed job and a bright future are being seen sprouting up in Metropolitan cities today. In hope of a brighter future, parents admit their young children to such institutes, sometimes even without investigating properly.
Parents of children also pay lacs as fees to these fraudulent institutions in the dream of a bright future, something which parents regret upon knowing the truth when they are forced to run from pillar to post to get their money back. Director Nikita Gupta and Manager Dhirendra Singh, who had been running the Aptech learning institute franchise in Kanpur, have been accused of cheating students.
Company Suddenly Shuts Shop & Disappeared
More than 200 children have been studying at the Institute at Mall Road in Kanpur since 2018. Courses are taught to children here for managerial and ground staff among other posts in the aviation industry, but in the last few days the institute stopped providing training to these children and then all of a sudden they shut shop and disappeared. Distressed children have still not received their completion certificates despite paying course fees and are threatened with fake harassment cases when they call those responsible.
Complaint Filed At Police Commissioner's Office
After seeing their future at risk, the students approached Kanpur police and made a written complaint to Police Commissioner Asim Arun. In the complaint, the students said that the institute, which had been running since 2018, had been consistently reluctant to issue any court certificate to any student so far, and that they recently stopped teaching despite getting a hefty payment to do so. The responsible people in the institute are not responding in any way, thereby leaving the future of these students in limbo.
Police Department Investigating Case
Meanwhile, police say the students have complained to them on which a detailed investigation is being carried out. The institute's director Nikita Gupta and manager Dhirendra Singh have been questioned.
According to the students, the prestigious institute has three branches in Kanpur, of which it is located on Mall Road. Recently, all branches are said to be in a similar condition. The aviation company's head office is said to be Mumbai, while its franchises were operating in Kanpur. The company's teachers and managers have also locked up the Kanpur office and disappeared.
