However, later a college official cleared the air by stating that a wrong application was submitted by someone with Sunny Leone’s name on it.
“It is an act of mischief as someone deliberately submitted a wrong application having typed Leone’s name. We have asked the admission department to correct it. We will also conduct an inquiry into the incident,” the official told PTI.
Following the incident, the candidate’s name was changed to ‘ABC’, but the other details remained the same.
