Williamnagar, Aug 20: An operator of a common services centre (CSC) was booked for allegedly issuing fake Scheduled Tribe certificates to five people in East Garo Hills district, an official said on Wednesday.
The matter came to light after one such forged certificate was detected at the DC’s office in Williamnagar when a person submitted the document for Aadhaar enrolment, he said.
The QR code on the document failed to authenticate it during scanning, the official said.
The operator of Rainbow CSC at Rongsak was found to have issued fake certificates without any authority, he said.
The district administration warned that any CSC or cyber cafe found issuing fake certificates will face criminal proceedings. (PTI)
