Jaipur, Sep 15 The Jaipur Police, on Monday, successfully caught a dummy candidate during the Rajasthan Police Constable Recruitment examination with the help of artificial intelligence (AI)–enabled biometric verification.
The accused, identified as Samundra Singh, was exposed when his biometric details did not match the registered candidate's records.
According to Jaipur Police Commissioner Biju George Joseph, the biometric verification system powered by AI flagged inconsistencies in the data.
Further investigation revealed that Singh had previously appeared in the June 2025 Diploma in Elementary Education examination by impersonating another candidate named Vikas.
This time too, Singh had arrived to take the constable recruitment test in Vikas's place.
The Harmara police immediately detained both Singh and Vikas for questioning.
A zero number FIR has been lodged against the two accused at the Rajasthan University and later transferred to Gandhi Nagar Police Station.
Singh, 26, is originally from Mania in Dholpur and currently resides in Padmavati Colony at Mansarovar.
Police officials said that AI integration with the biometric system now provides complete details of candidates the moment their attendance is recorded.
It can instantly reveal past examination records, helping authorities identify repeat offenders.
This advanced system played a crucial role in unmasking Singh's impersonation attempt.
Meanwhile, in a similar incident, Murlipura police also arrested another dummy candidate on Sunday after biometric data flagged a mismatch.
Officials said the technology has become a powerful tool to curb malpractices in competitive examinations, ensuring transparency and fairness in the recruitment process.
