Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Chief Minister Mohan Yadav suspended eleven government officials, including the General Manager of the Electricity Distribution Company, during a review of the Samadhan Online program on Monday.
The suspension of the General Manager was based on a complaint from Durga Prasad of Raisen district, who reported irregularities in his electricity bill. The complaint has since been resolved.
