Around 4,000 students have received fake degrees from the Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) centre in Kathua without writing any examinations, Jammu and Kashmir police said. While officials from IGNOU and post offices prepared fake answer sheets, the money collected from candidates in the scam was embezzled through a bank account opened in the name of a fake coordinator.
