In a startling revelation, a man who served as a home guard for 35 years has been arrested for allegedly using forged documents and a fake identity, according to police sources on Wednesday. The accused, known as Nand Lal or Nakdu, has a history of criminal charges, including murder and dacoity.

The saga unfolded when Nakdu's nephew filed a complaint, bringing to light his fraudulent acquisition of the job. Police investigations found that Nakdu, hailing from Chakwara, had a long list of criminal activities dating back to 1984. Despite a criminal history, he secured his position in 1989 using fraudulent means.

Superintendent of Police Hemraj Meena disclosed that Nakdu is currently imprisoned as investigations continue. The department is meticulously probing how he eluded detection for such an extended period while maintaining his position under an assumed identity.
