MP Updates: Indore Encroachment Removal Team Spotted In Commando-Like Uniform; Leopard Attack In Jabalpur

Indore (Madhya Pradesh): The new uniform of encroachment removal team of Indore Municipal Corporation has raised eyebrows in the city. The municipal staff were spotted donning Commando-like uniform on Wednesday, garnering attention of not only passersby, but also the opposition Congress.

According to information, the Indore Municipal Corporation had implemented army commando-like dress code for encroachment removal staff of IMC to avoid ruckus by the accused vendors during the clearing work.

However, Congress called the action as an insult to the army, saying the IMC is misusing the sacred uniform to instil fear in public.

Congress calls it an action to scare people

Regarding this experiment of the Indore Municipal Corporation, Congress' divisional spokesperson Vivek Khandelwal told media that, 'This is a crime. It is an insult to the army. Not everyone can wear an army uniform.”

Khandelwal added, “The army uniform instills a sense of security among the citizens but this uniform is being used to create fear among them. This is condemnable. Reconsider your decision.”
