Flood of fake applications
According to a report, fake applications have been received in the name of Narendra Modi, Amit Shah, Sachin Tendulkar, MS Dhoni. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has received more than 3,000 applicants for the post of head coach. May 27 was the last date for the post of head coach. According to the report, BCCI received many applications in the name of Tendulkar, Dhoni, Harbhajan Singh, Virender Sehwag and other former cricketers. The list also includes the names of politicians like Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah.
Fake applications were also received in 2022
This is not the first time that Indian boards have received fake applications. Apart from this, in 2022 when BCCI invited applications for the head coach. Then they received many applications in the name of celebrities. After this, the board asked the interested candidates to mail their applications, this time BCCI used Google Form. A BCCI official said, “Last year also BCCI had received such feedback where fraudsters had applied and this time also the story is the same. The reason for BCCI inviting applications on Google Form is that it is easy to check the names of the applicants in a sheet.
