GUWAHATI, Feb 10: Guwahati Police have arrested the president and secretary of a little-known organization named Divyang Mancha Assam for their alleged involvement in a cash-for-jobs scam.
Semim Ahmed and Nabajit Barman, secretary and president of Divyang Mancha Assam, were arrested from Boragaon locality of Guwahati Sunday night.
The arrest of the two leaders came after an audio clip, purportedly of Nabajit Barman, in which he was heard seeking money from physically-challenged candidates, promising them government jobs in the third and fourth grades under the ADRE in return.
