AFTER 'Dog Babu', 'Sonalika Tractor' and 'Donald Trump', yet another case of fake application has emerged in Bihar. This time, the application seeks a residential certificate for a cat.
The Rohtas district administration has received a request from an applicant named 'Cat Kumar', listing 'Catty Boss' as the father and 'Catiya Devi' as the mother.
District Magistrate (DM), Rohtas, Udita Singh ordered an investigation soon after the matter came to her notice. "I have already asked the revenue officer of Nasariganj to register an FIR against unknown persons and initiate investigation," the DM said on Monday.
She confirmed that an FIR has been registered at Nasariganj police station against unknown persons under relevant sections of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).
