The Election Commission of India suspended Rajasthan cadre IPS officer Kishan Sahay Meena (IPS:2004:RJ) for dereliction of duty. Meena, who was on electoral duty in Jharkhand, has been accused of returning to Rajasthan without obtaining prior permission.
Jharkhand Chief Election Officer K Ravi Kumar (IAS:2004:JH) has confirmed the suspension of Meena. He said Meena, posted as a police observer in Gumla, left duty without permission from the Election Commission, after which this action was taken and another police observer was appointed in his place.
It is worth noting that Meena returned to Jaipur from Jharkhand without ECI’s permission and reportedly informed the authorities about his illness but failed to get permission to return.
