Jaipur: Believe it or not. A Rajasthan school owner received an admit card with his name and the photograph of US President Barack Obama pasted on it for a junior engineer examination conducted by the Centre in Delhi.

The card is duly signed by the authority with seal. It has a roll number ? 2201000509 and the examination centre was mentioned as being near Tuglakabad metro station in Badarpur.
The exam was for Part B electrical, in general engineering, conducted by central government`s Staff Selection Commission.
"I was shocked to see the admit card in my name because I never applied for such a post.
"What was more shocking for me was the picture of US President Barack Obama as the candidate in the admit card," Ram, a father of four children, said.
"There is a signature below the picture of Obama but that is not my signature," he said.
Date of birth of the candidate mentioned in the admit card is 05-10-1987 while his date of birth is 01-01-1973.
