In another job scam, a woman from Porvorim and a school teacher from Dhavali were arrested by police in connection with a Rs 1.2 crore fraud, adding to previous scams involving promises of government jobs. As complaints from victims grow, more arrests are expected. The scam appears to involve influential figures, prompting the opposition to demand a commission led by a retired high court judge to ensure justice and refund victims’ money.
The government plans to confiscate properties of those involved, but critics argue that such action is reactive, akin to demolishing illegal structures only after completion. Arrests and actions are happening after the scam has reached alarming levels. A thorough investigation is needed to ensure justice and return the stolen money to victims who were misled into paying for their dream jobs.
