“For the avoidance of doubt, we want our candidates and their parents or guardians to know that our scholarship programmes, including the aptitude test scheduled for Saturday, 23rd February, 2013, are absolutely free.
Anybody who parades himself as representing RSSDA, and is asking for money is a fraudster, and should be arrested and handed over to the police”, the agency stated.
