Union Minister Uma Bharti tonight said there was a “deep conspiracy” behind her name cropping up in the Vyapam scam and that people were succumbing to “shame and fear” caused by the scandal and nobody was killing them.

“Maybe nobody is killing them. The fear and shame of the innocent people is causing brain haemorrhage, heart attack or suicide. When I heard my name in Vyapam (scam), even I went through lot of trauma,” she claimed.

“There is a very deep conspiracy. The biggest example of this is that my name is in it. I am in no way involved. If I am there, it is because of a very seriously conspiracy,” said Bharti.

The Union Water Resources minister said a person who lived in her staff quarters figured in the FIR but the accused was not aware of his marks being tampered with in the examination.

She claimed the person had her address and his marks were “increased in the exam”. “Even he was not aware of it. He used to perform puja at the homes of those who worked in Vyapam. So they did him a favour, but he did not pass the examination,” claimed Bharti said.

She further alleged the information about the FIR reached the media before it could go to court. — PTI
