Police in Bhopal have filed a third criminal complaint against Tirthi Singh Rajput, a 28‑year‑old man who allegedly posed as an IAS officer to lure a woman into a fraudulent scheme. The complainant claims that Rajput took ₹3 lakh from her under the pretext of securing a government job and subsequently provided her with a fake training program.
