When HRD ministry asked Virender Sehwag's 'help' to become an umpire

To err is human or in this case the Human Resource Development Ministry. Twitter users where left puzzled on Thursday when a tweet appeared on HRD ministry's handle asking Virender Sehwag to help with an 'umpiring course'. 

The tweet request Sehwag, who is a member of Delhi and District Cricket Association's cricket committee, to help with the registering for the course. The user was apparently having trouble in registering for an Umpiring course run by the DDCA. The tweet requested Sehwag to get in touch with DDCA.  

It was clear that the tweet was accidently sent by someone handling the HRD twitter handle. The tweet was soon deleted from the handle but not before some keen-eyed users reacted to it. 

The new DDCA administration, after the election of Rajat Sharma as president, has appointed a committee comprising of former India and Delhi cricketers Virender Sehwag, Aakash Chopra and Rahul Sanghvi. India opener Gautam Gambhir will be a special invitee to the committee.

Sehwag, who is very active social media, often interacts with fans on Twitter.
