Sunny Leone reacts after she becomes 'topper' in Bihar junior engineer recruitment list

On Tuesday, when the Public Health Engineering Department (PHED), Bihar, published its list of candidates to be recruited to the post of junior engineer (JE), there was one name that surprised all—Sunny Leone.

Although PHED joint secretary Ashok Kumar claimed that this could be a mischief played by someone, it was too late. The news was picked up by most media outlets.

It is now learnt that Sunny Leone herself has heard about the news. And quite expectedly, she was amused. The actor took to Twitter to comment on the news. "HAHA, Im so glad the OTHER me has scored so well !!!!! lol...," Sunny Leone tweeted along with a link of the news report.

Sunny Leone's was not the only name in the list that generated interest. The list also contained a name 'bvcxzbnnb' whose father's name is mggvghhnnnnn—names which read like computer passwords. While Sunny Leone scored 98.5 points, 'bvcxzbnnb' too had an impressive 92.89 points.

According to the list of duly registered candidates, Sunny Leone is a 27-year-old woman whose father's name is Leona Leone.

After the issue was brought to the notice of PHED Minister Vinod Narayan Jha, he claimed that this was not the final list. Those whose names figure will have to undergo a screening process which would include verification of their documents and certificates, he said, reports PTI.

The departments special secretary Satish Chandra Mishra had responded with a mix of bemusement and bewilderment. He said he did not know who Sunny Leone is and added that the name might have been uploaded on the website by a mischief monger. The issue will be sorted out, he said.
