A Man Applied For Correction In His Voter ID Card, Got One Reissued With Photo Of A Dog Instead
Friday, March 6, 2020 IST
In today’s time when we do not know konse kaagaz dikhane padein people want to be safe and make sure there are no mistakes on their identification cards.
That is what Sunil Karmakar must have thought when applying for a correction in his voter ID card.
"Yesterday I was called at Dulal Smriti School and this voter ID card was given to me. I saw the photo. The officer there signed and gave it to me but he didn't see the photo. This is playing with my dignity. I will go to the BDO office and request that this should not happen again,” ANI quoted him as saying.
However, the Block Development Officer (BDO) has asserted that the picture has already been corrected and Karmakar will get the revised ID card with the correct photo.
Rajarshi Chakraborty, BDO, reportedly said, "It's not his final voter ID card. If there is a mistake, it'll be corrected. As far as the dog's photo is concerned, it might have been done by someone while filling online application. The photo has already been corrected. He'll get the final ID card with the correct photo.
What is surprising about the mistake is that, it is not as if Sunil got issued a voter ID with some other person’s face - that can still be passed as an administrative error.
How can a voter ID have a picture of dog? How can a photo of a dog exist in voter records? Or was this done on purpose? The incident is really bizarre.
