The Cyber Police Station of the Delhi Police has filed an FIR on the basis of a complaint filed by the Ministry of Rural Development, where it has alleged that a fake recruitment drive is being conducted that fraudulently claims to be under this Ministry.
According to the FIR filed by the representatives of the Ministry of Rural Development, they found fake Advertisements of a recruitment drive issued in the name of the CEO and Secretary of the National Rural Development & Recreation (NRDR) Mission, which is fraudulently mentioned to be under this Ministry. Further, while going through the NRDRM website (nrdrmvacancy.com), it was observed that several pictures have been uploaded to its website that features photos of the minister and senior officers.
