After the well-known ‘dog babu’ and ‘Sonalika tractor’, another incident came into the limelight from Khagaria district, where applications for residence certificates have been moved under the names of Hindu deities Lord Ram and Goddess Sita, as well as a crow.
The applicant allegedly submitted a photo of Lord Ram along with a residence certificate application in Chautham Zone Office of the district under the name ‘Shri Ram Ram’, father- Dashrath, mother- Kaushalya, village- Ayodhya, police station- Chautham, district- Khagaria, NDTV reported.
Another Application was submitted with a photo of Goddess sita under the name ‘Shrimati Mata Sita’, Father-Raja Janak, Mother-Rani Sunaina, Village- Ayodya, Ayodya, POLICE Station- Cutation- Khagaria.
In another incident, the applicant allegedly submitted a photo of a crow along with a residence certificate application in Khagaria Sadar Zonal Office of the district under in which the name of the applicant was mentioned as “Crow”, father’s name – Kaua Singh, mother’s name – Maina Singh, village Bhadas, district – Khagaria.
The district administration said it has rejected several such applications submitted through the RTPS portal and has initiated police action, registering FIRs against unknown individuals in affected police station areas, including Chautham, Gogri, and Chitraguptanagar.
The fake application copies have gone viral on social media, triggering widespread discussions and criticism over lax verification procedures.
Last week, a similarly outrageous case came to light in East Champaran district where an application had been moved in the name of one ‘Sonalika Tractor’ by using the photograph of Bhojpuri actress Monalisa. The applicant allegedly submitted a photo of the popular Bhojpuri actress along with a residence certificate application under the name ‘Sonalika Tractor’, claiming descent from ‘Swaraj Tractor’ and ‘Car Devi’.
Earlier, a residence certificate was issued in the name of ‘dog babu’, born to ‘kutta babu’ and ‘kutiya devi’, much to the embarrassment of the administration, which got it promptly annulled.
Moreover, besides lodging of an FIR, a computer operator was sacked for unmindfully forwarding the application, and suspension was recommended for the revenue department official who heedlessly went on to issue the certificate.
The episode was lapped up by those opposing the special intensive revision of electoral rolls in Bihar, which accepts residence certificates, but not Aadhaar cards and ration cards, from voters.
