KEY POINTS
- A student from a school in Bihar filled in details on an exam answer sheet with relevant information about Virat Kohli.
- Their IPL-themed answers included RCB as the class name, list number 18 and innings ‘opening’.
- Multiple choice questions were answered by darkening circles in a pattern that formed the letter “18 RCB.”
A student named Virat Kohliof class RCB (Royal Challengers Bengaluru), conducted a test on the subject Cricket at the Indian Premier League school, or so it seems judging by the look of a monthly exam answer booklet filled out in Bihar.
According to the headline, the copy was provided by the Bihar School Examination Board in Patna.
The blank spaces where the student was required to write his or her own details were filled with relevant information about Kohli and his life.
For example, mother’s name was Saroj Kohli and father’s name was Prem Nath Kohli.
The candidate who impersonated Virat Kohli wrote RCB against the class, had roll number 18, which was also the subject code, having taken the exam in the “opening” session.
The test consisted of answering multiple choice questions by darkening the correct circle. The student answered by following a pattern that formed the letter “18 RCB.”
18 RCB was also the school code.
Commenting on the photo, one user joked: “That is incorrect. RCB has so far only lasted [the IPL] 17 times. Next year it will be 18.”
One wrote: “BRO is working hard so that Virat Kohli can complete his graduation.”
Some doubted the authenticity of the answers in the answer book, speculating that it was an additional copy completed for social media interaction.
Many even blamed RCB’s failure on alleged fanatics like the student. So far, no further details or updates have emerged on the matter.
Bihar’s overall literacy rate is just under 70 per cent, with the demographic group with the highest share being Patna. Bihar’s gross enrolment rate in secondary education is 58 per cent, while around 6.11 per cent of the state’s population, or nearly 80 lakh people, are graduates.
