An 18-year-old boy from Udupi, Karnataka, paid ₹17,000 to obtain a forged National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) PG 2025 marksheet in an attempt to impress his parents, according to a report in The Hindu.
The boy, whose father is a government officer, presented a tampered scorecard claiming he had secured an All India Rank (AIR) of 107 with 646 marks in NEET PG 2025. However, his father grew suspicious when local newspapers failed to report his son’s alleged high-ranking performance. The father then sent the marksheet to a local newspaper, which published the news. Upon verifying the results on the official NEET website, he discovered that his son’s actual rank was 17.6 lakh—a stark contrast to the fabricated claim.
After being confronted, the boy confessed to paying ₹17,000 via WhatsApp to an individual identifying as Vishnu Kumar for the fake marksheet. The incident highlights the pressures faced by students in competitive examinations and the lengths some may go to in order to meet parental expectations.
