Ruby Rai, who topped Bihar intermediate examination in the Arts stream, was arrested by Special Task Force investigating the case when she appeared for re-examination at the Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) office on Sunday.
 
She was arrested following a non-bailable warrant issued by a Patna court against four toppers of the intermediate examination, including Ruby.
 
Science topper Saurbabh Shrestha, third topper Rahul Kumar and Vishun Roy college Principal Bachha Rai's daughter Shalini Rai are the other three against whom the arrest warrant has been issued.
 
The state education board had ordered fresh exams and a probe into the matter after Ruby during a TV interview pronounced Political Science as ‘Prodikal Science’ which according to her deals with cooking.
 
Ruby Rai didn’t appear for re-test on health ground on June 3 and June 17. After skipping two summons to appear before a team of subject experts for a reassessment of her exam performance, she appeared for the re-test on Saturday.
 
According to officials, she could not answer a single question properly following which the board cancelled her results.
   
"The BSEB took the decision to cancel the result of the Arts topper on the basis of the report of experts team on her performance in today's re-test. She could not answer many of the questions which had been asked in the examination in which she (Ruby Rai) was declared the topper," Anand Kishore, the new chairman of the board, said.
 
Let us tell you that Ruby Rai, enrolled from the controversial Vishun Roy College in Vaishali, had scored 444 out of 500 marks in her intermediate exams in the Arts stream.
 
"During the course of the re-test her calibre was not found congruent to the top rank she had secured in +2 examination this year," Kishore, who is also Commissioner of Patna division, added.
