Actor Salman Khan just finished his first year in BA from a college in Aligarh, or at least this marksheet claims so. The Agra University has actually issued a marksheet with the photograph of the Sultan actor on it. The error was luckily caught while officials were cross-checking the results before handing the marksheets to students.
The university officials have passed on the blame for the blunder on to the private agency which is responsible for preparing the marksheets.
While the report card was corrected, according reports, this is not the only case of discrepancy in university marksheets. A report in the Times of India claims that another marksheet had the photo of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on it and there are several others where the name of Bhimrao Ambedkar is printed in place of the student’s name.
While Salman will be happy to know that he can still pass off as a college student, the actor won’t be happy about managing to score just 35%.
However, despite the photographic evidence, the PRO of the university denied any such faux pas had happened.
