But this real life Munna Bhai has apparently fooled almost everyone - the media at large and even politicians- 24 years old Rahul Kumar Das of Pathachar Kuchi was in news for a week, trending on social media for being a poor tea-pan seller single mother's son who cleared NEET at one go and got a seat in prestigious AIIMS - the story has now turned put to be fake.
While a group of students from Assam who had appeared for NEET has first raised the alarms to media claiming that Rahul's claims are 'fake', proof of it came to media today.
He has been verified from multiple sources that Rahul's admit card was doctored, he used the records of a student from Haryana to show that he got a seat in the AIIMS.
Rahul's Fake Admit Card
The records that Rahul gave media was that his Roll No for NEET Exams was 2303001114 which was in Rahul's admit card, but cross verification has found put that in reality that roll number of Kiranjeet Kaur from Haryana, who ranked AIR 11656.
Rahul Das's Original Mark Sheet
