Five people were arrested last month in connection with the district's scholarship scheme, including the College principal.

The principal was identified as Manik Ali of Barpeta Bongaigaon College.

Along with Ali, the college's junior assistant, Abul Bashar, and junior assistants from other institutions in Baniyarapara, Sajidul Islam, Khabiruddin, and Salim Malik, were detained.
