Suraj Bhaskar, a 20-year-old medical aspirant from Khalilpur village in Jaunpur, Uttar Pradesh, amputated his foot to get admission under the disability quota in a government medical college. He had failed the NEET exam twice. Suraj staged a fake attack, claiming unknown men cut off his foot and left him unconscious. His elder brother reported this to police on January 18, 2026. Police registered a case and started an investigation. They found inconsistencies in Suraj’s statement and found a diary entry where he wrote, "I will become an MBBS doctor in 2026." The police also examined his phone and questioned people linked to him, which raised suspicion. Officials say Suraj planned to fake disability to benefit from special admission rules. "The accused tried to mislead the investigation with a fabricated story, but his claims did not stand scrutiny," police said. Further legal action is ongoing. Suraj is currently getting treatment at a private hospital. The case highlights the pressure many face to enter medical courses and the extreme steps some take to fulfill their dreams.
