The Patna district administration is on a hunt for individuals responsible for a peculiar incident involving the issuance of a residence certificate under the name 'Dog Babu.' The certificate, mistakenly generated through the Right to Public Services (RTPS) portal, depicts a dog as the resident of Masaurhi, sparking intense criticism online.
District Magistrate Thiyagarajan swiftly canceled the erroneous certificate within minutes and has vowed to take stringent action. "An FIR is being filed, and those involved will face suspension," he asserted. The administration, alongside cyber police, is tirelessly working to pinpoint the origin of this blunder.
The controversy has not only raised questions about the security of the RTPS portal but also attracted criticism from figures such as Swaraj Party's Yogendra Yadav, who pointed out the ironic laxity in government operations. With a Sub-Divisional Officer-led inquiry underway, the episode underlines broader challenges in safeguarding sensitive public service platforms.
