Block Education Officer said the girl was admitted to the school on April 2 after a correction was suggested.
A girl from Uttar Pradesh Badaun who was allegedly denied admission to a government school due to a mistake in her name on her Aadhaar card was admitted there, after the intervention of Chief Minister's Office.
The girl's name in her Aadhaar card was mentioned as "Madhu ka Panchwa Bachha (Madhu's fifth child)".
"I went to a government school to enrol my daughter there. The teacher made fun of the name mentioned on my daughter's Aadhaar card as it read that she's my fifth child and did not admit her there," Madhu, the girl's mother said.
After the news went viral, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister's Office (CMO) took cognizance of the matter.
