As per details, Tarun Baheti, district panchayat member and Congress leader filed a complaint with district panchayat CEO Guru Prasad claiming that despite state government’s guidelines elected representatives of Congress were being discriminated against.
Taking cognizance of the plaint, district panchayat CEO issued show-cause notice to PWD’s MS Chouhan, RES executive engineer RG Gupta and Harnavadagram panchayat secretary Sushil Sharma seeking a written clarification within two days. He warned of disciplinary action under Central/state Civil Services (Conduct) Rules in absence of satisfactory reply.
