Multiple reports say eight junior colleges are booked over allegations that they submitted fake fire No Objection Certificates (Fire NOCs) to the Telangana Intermediary Board. The accusations include forging the signature of the HYDRAA (Hyderabad Disaster Response and Asset Protection Agency) chief on the documents used to obtain the NOCs.
According to the accounts, the colleges submitted the Fire NOCs to the Intermediary Board as part of compliance requirements. Investigators reportedly find the signatures on the submitted documents to be allegedly forged, leading to criminal action against the colleges. The cases are described as being registered on the basis of the alleged falsification of documents, including the HYDRAA chief’s signature.
While the sources do not detail the specific names of the colleges or the exact investigative steps taken, they agree on the broad allegation: eight junior colleges are accused of using forged Fire NOCs by falsifying signatures in documents submitted to the Intermediary Board. The reports indicate that legal proceedings are underway following the bookings.
