New Delhi/IBNS: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has arrested eight people for involvement in a "rigging racket" in the NEET medical entrance exam on Sunday. 

Officials alleged that the impersonators planned to appear in the NEET UG Exam, 2022 held for admissions in undergraduate medical courses in place of actual candidates in lieu of huge amounts of money.

The CBI has alleged that user IDs and passwords of the candidates were collected by the accused, who made necessary modifications for getting desired examination centres.

"They also use the process of mixing and morphing of photographs to facilitate use of proxy candidates for appearing in the examination," the FIR alleged.
