A strange incident occurred in Chhattisgarh. On the one hand, candidates are dissatisfied with the halted recruitment process for 14850 teachers, on the other side, a puzzling chain of events has emerged.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni has sought for a position as a teacher in Raipur, the state capital. Now, what is even more surprising is that the applicant has given his father’s name Sachin Tendulkar. Now, the biggest surprise of them all is the so-called Mahendra Singh Dhoni was also shortlisted by the officials for an interview. This was reported when the applicant did not turn up for the interview.

As many as 15 applicants were to be interviewed on Friday. When Mahendra Singh Dhoni did not turn up, it raised suspicion of the officials. They then called on the number which was in the application after which they realised the mistake and the application was deemed to be fake.

As per the application, MS Dhoni held an engineering degree from CSVTU University, Durg. As soon as it came to light, it went viral as the other candidates promptly posted it on social media. The authorities are now preparing to lodge an FIR against this fake applicant.

Even though the officials have accepted that the application was fake, they are not quite sure how it made it to the interview. If the FIR is indeed lodged and a probe takes place, it will be interesting to see how the entire episode played out. As things stand right now, it has made for quite a viral content and people are lapping it up.
