A case of illegal immigration to Canada has come into light after Canadian Embassy sent the documents of a Jalandhar Municipal Corporation (JMC) Engineer to JMC officials for verification. The said engineer had attached the salary slip of JMC, his I-card and a recommendation letter from a Joint Corporation.

The engineer had mentioned his name as Sanjeev Kumar on the I-card where his designation was mentioned as Corporation Engineer. He had also attached the recommendation letter for visa application issued by joint commissioner Parampal Singh Bhatia.

When the current Joint Commissioner of Corporation, Rajiv Verma, started the verification process, he discovered that there was neither any engineer by the name of Sanjeev Kumar, nor any joint commissioner by the name of Parampal Singh Bhatia ever employed by the corporation.
