After the gaffe was noticed, the education department has lodged a complaint at the SP’s office here.

The matter came to light at the examination center at Rudrappa College when the candidate produced the hall ticket for verification. The college principal later lodged a complaint.

Shivamogga SP Mithun Kumar said that the case has been referred to the CEN police. Prima facie it appears that the photo was uploaded when the candidate registered for the examination. An investigation is underway, he added.

The candidate has claimed that she asked someone else to fill in her application. Based on her statement, three persons were called for interrogation, he added.
