Cabinet Minister Kailash Vijayvargiya had made controversial remarks regarding the contaminated water tragedy in Indore, Madhya Pradesh. After this, Congress opposed the BJP leader’s remarks by making several serious allegations against him. Now a Sub Divisional Magistrate (SDM) has been suspended for allegedly mentioning all this in a government order.
This SDM was from Dewas, who was suspended on Sunday (January 4). Officials have informed that Ujjain Division Commissioner (Revenue) Ashish Singh has suspended an SDM of Dewas on charges of serious negligence, indifference and irregularities in the discharge of official duties.
He said that the SDM had issued a government order on Saturday to impose duty on subordinate revenue officers to maintain law and order in view of a protest organized by the Congress in Dewas on Sunday, January 4.
A senior official said, “In this order issued by the SDM, a part of the Congress memorandum which the main opposition party had given to the administration for prior information about the protest was copied exactly. This is serious negligence.
In the Congress memorandum, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government of the state was targeted over the drinking water tragedy of Indore and it was said that Vijayvargiya’s use of the indecent word ‘Ghanta’ in reply to a journalist’s question is a sign of ‘inhumanity and autocracy’.
Citing the instructions of State Congress President Jitu Patwari, it was also said in the memorandum that a protest will be held by ringing ‘bells’ in front of the residences of BJP MPs and MLAs against this ‘inhuman behaviour’.
The protest was organized in protest against the death of people due to contaminated drinking water in Bhagirathpura area of Indore and Vijayvargiya’s controversial comment on a TV journalist’s question about this tragedy.
Kailash Vijayvargiya had created a controversy by using the word ‘Ghanta’ in front of the camera when a TV journalist asked a question about the drinking water tragedy in Indore on the night of 31 December. In common parlance, this word is broadly understood to mean nonsense.
The administration has so far confirmed the death of six people in the outbreak of vomiting and diarrhea caused by drinking contaminated water in the city. However, Mayor Pushyamitra Bhargava had said on January 2 that he had received information about the death of 10 people in the incident. Local people have claimed that 16 people, including a six-month-old child, died due to drinking contaminated water.
