The Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) on Friday confirmed that it had received an application for recruitment to the post of head constable (ministerial) in the name of ‘Narendra Modi ’ with the PM's photograph on it as well. Officials, however, claimed that the anomaly was detected in time and the application was rejected.However, the officials were unable to explain how an admit card was issued against the application and the same was available on the CRPF’s website till late on Thursday evening. It was withdrawn on Friday after TOI, in its July 21 edition, carried a report about the fiasco.“We had informed our headquarters about the irregularity as well,” CRPF DIG at Rampur group center Praveen Kumar said. Though the CRPF confirmed that the application was the handiwork of some mischievous element, there was no information whether it was contemplating filing an FIR against the individual.
