A candidate taking the Karnataka Teachers Recruitment Exam landed in a soup when her admit card had an image of actor Sunny Leone rather than her own.
On an admit card for the Karnataka Teachers' Eligibility Test-2022, administered by the state school education department, a candidate's photo was replaced by a picture of Sunny Leone.
According to media reports, the screen grab of the alleged admit card was shared on social media and led the state education administration to launch an investigation.
The social media chairperson for the Karnataka Congress, BR Naidu, said on Tuesday that the state education department printed the former adult star's photo on the hall ticket instead of the candidate's.
"In the teacher's recruitment hall ticket, instead of the candidate's photo, the education department had printed the photo of Blue Film actress Sunny Leone. What can we expect from the party that watched blue films inside the assembly," Naidu tweeted in Kannada along with the image of the said candidate's admit card.
The office of BC Nagesh responded to Naidu's allegations by releasing the following statement:
"The candidate has to upload a photo. The system takes whatever photo they attach to the file. When we asked the candidate if she put Sunny Leone's photo on her admit card, she said her husband's friend uploaded her information."
The test took place on November 6. 3,32,913 people signed up to take the exam, which was given at 781 locations throughout Karnataka.
