It is not strange that in most of the interviews, the question asked be interviewers are not according to the requirements of the post. It is much more than it.

Interviewees has a right to ask anything for checking the knowledge, experience, skill of the candidates but I think the question that are not related to the post applied for are unnecessary and also sometime it discourage the candidates..   

Sometimes the interviewee ask more technical question, some time much more theoretical. In my point of view as there is a pattern for a written exam there should be a similar kind of pattern for interview too.

Yes the interviewer ask questions that are not directly related to the job, but they are indirectly related to. Recently I acted as an Subject Expert for the selection of the Librarian, Assistant Librarian and Library Restorer for a University library. I asked question ranging from subject database to family. There is a reason behind that. I think you are quite young, when you will have much experience then you will know why we ask question like..
a) Presently what are you doing?
b) How many members are there in your family?
c) Are you staying at a rented house?
d) Why you applied for the post? and so on..

thanks sir....

but my discussion is also in the question that are not according to post applied for......
