BHOPAL
A leave application written by a constable posted in Bhopal for attending his brother-in-law’s wedding, got him line-attached. The constable, Dilip Ahirwar, posted in the traffic police, asked for special leave of five days as his brother-in-law’s wedding was slated for December 11.
The problem occurred when he wrote a note stating, “My wife has given me warning that, if I fail to attend her brother’s wedding, I will have to face dire consequences”.
The police officials found the letter objectionable and took disciplinary action against the constable, attaching him to the Police Lines.
Sources said that, many a time, police personnel cite irrational excuses to get leave. Many a time, the officers ignore their fault, but, when they cross the limits of discipline, they are punished properly.
