Singh said that authorities had a suspicion when it was found that only these two teachers had not submitted their original documents. When officials tried to reach out to them, both had switched off their phones.

It was then found that they had been appointed on the basis of fradulent documents, as they did not belong to them. They had been recruited through someone else's documents, Singh informed.

While 'Anjali' was working at the Khurja school, 'Preeti' was working at the Lakhawati school.
