Srinagar, May 2 (IBNS): In a bizarre incident, authorities in Jammu and Kashmir have issued an admit card to a cow to appear in an exam.

The Board of Professional Entrance Examinations (BOPEE) has issued the admit card to 'Kachir Gaaw'.

The 'Gaaw' has been issued the card to appear in an entrance examination for Diploma in Polytechnic.

As per the admit card, the Gaaw'sa father has been identified as Gura Dand (Red Bull).

National Conference spokesman Junaid Azim Mattu highlighted the issue as he posted an image of the admit card in his Twitter page and then wrote: "The J&K Board of Professional Entrance Examinations issued this roll-number slip to a Cow after due verification."

"I have both the Provisional Confirmation Page for applicant Ms. "Kachir Gaw" as well as details of payment she made to BOPEE," he said.

"However after an informal heads-up was sent to the Government, BOPEE was asked to take the record down from their website this morning. Mr. Naeem Akhtar @jkpdp has some explaining to do. New benchmark of progress in Education Sector under him - COWS getting roll no slips?" he said.

Speaking on the issue, former Jammu and Kashmir CM Omar Abdullah tweeted: "Brilliant. I wish Kachir Gaaw had turned up for the examination."
