Of the nearly 1.5 lakh candidates issued admit cards to take the test for the 155 posts of naib tehsildar in J&K the Jammu and Kashmir Service Selection Board (SSB) has issued a computer-generated admit card in the donkey's name with a passport size photograph also mentioning details regarding his family background.

The picture of the admit card soon went viral on Twitter and Facebook. Social media users were having a field day over the apparent lapse by the authorities.

Under the SSB system, candidates fill out the application form online and upload their picture. They can then download their admit cards. Looks like pranksters made the most of the absence of a mechanism to check the veracity of every application. Chairman of SSB Simrandeep Singh said they will track down the IP address once the exam work is over.
