Officer Suspended For Allowing Mumbai Hoarding Without Top Cop Approval

Maharashtra Government on Tuesday suspended IPS officer Quaiser Khalid for allowing a giant hoarding - whose collapse last month claimed 17 lives – without the approval of the DGP office.

The 140x120 ft hoarding in Mumbai's Ghatkopar area collapsed on May 13 during gusty winds and unseasonal rains.

A notification issued by the state Home Department on Friday said the IPS officer, as the then Government Railway Police (GRP) commissioner, permitted the erection of the hoarding without obtaining mandatory permission from the office of Maharashtra Director General of Police (DGP).

Mr Khalid committed administrative lapses and irregularities in sanctioning the hoarding on his own, the notification said. The hoarding size also deviated from the approved norms, it added.

The suspension comes amid reports of Mumbai police probing a series of money transactions allegedly linking the company that owned the hoarding, and a business associate of the wife of the IPS officer.

“A preliminary inquiry has been conducted regarding the collapse of the hoarding, erected on Railway Police land,” the notification said.

A report was submitted by the Director General of Police, Maharashtra State has clearly mentioned the gross irregularities and administrative lapses in sanctioning the hoarding that collapsed on May 13, it said.

“The Government of Maharashtra has decided to initiate disciplinary proceedings against Md. Quaiser Khalid, IPS (MH 1997), Additional Director General of PCR, Maharashtra State in respect of administrative lapses and irregularities in sanctioning the hoarding, on his own, without approval of the DGP office and in respect of the misuse of powers by allowing the massive hoarding size of 120 X 140 ft deviating from the approved norms,” it said.

Mr Khalid was being placed under suspension in accordance with the Provision of Rule 3 (1) of the All India Services (Discipline and Appeal) Rules, 1969 with immediate effect, it said.

During the suspension period, Mr Khalid shall be paid subsistence allowance, dearness allowance and other allowances as admissible under Rule 4 of All India Services (Discipline and Appeal) Rules, 1969, on production of a certificate that he is not engaged in any other employment, business, profession or vocation, it said.

The notification said that during the period of suspension, Khalid shall not leave station without obtaining the permission of the Director General of Police, adding he won't be allowed to accept any private employment or engage in any other trade or business during the period of suspension.

Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, the MP from Odisha's Sambalpur, took oath in Odia.

MPs can subscribe to the oath or affirmation in English or any of the 22 languages listed in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution.

कभी भी अस्थिर हो सकती है केंद्र सरकार, कार्यकर्ता पार्टी के जनाधार को युद्धस्तर पर बढ़ाएं : मायावती

बहुजन समाज पार्टी (बसपा) की अध्यक्ष एवं उत्तर प्रदेश की पूर्व मुख्यमंत्री मायावती ने रविवार को कहा कि भारतीय जनता पार्टी (भाजपा) की अगुवाई वाली केंद्र की मौजूदा राष्ट्रीय जनतांत्रिक गठबंधन (राजग) सरकार किसी भी वक्त अस्थिर हो सकती है लिहाजा पार्टी कार्यकर्ता पूरे देश में अपने मिशन से जुड़े लोगों को आगे बढाकर बसपा के जनाधार को युद्धस्तर पर बढ़ाएं.

मायावती ने मीटिंग बुलाई

हाल में संपन्न हुए लोकसभा चुनाव में बसपा की पराजय के बाद मायावती ने पार्टी के प्रदेश कार्यालय में पार्टी की केंद्रीय कार्यकारिणी के सभी पदाधिकारियों, राज्यों के प्रदेश अध्यक्ष और अन्य वरिष्ठ पदाधिकारियों की महत्वपूर्ण बैठक बुलाई.

पार्टी को मजबूत करें

बैठक में मायावती ने कहा, ‘‘वर्तमान में केंद्र की भाजपा एवं उसकी राजग सरकार पूर्ण रूप से स्थिर नहीं है. उसके कभी भी अस्थिर होने की स्थिति बन सकती है. ऐसे में पार्टी के लोगों को पूरे देश में संगठन में मिशनरी लोगों को आगे करके पार्टी के जनाधार को युद्धस्तर पर बढ़ाना है, ताकि हर स्तर पर पार्टी मजबूत हो सके.''

विपक्षी दलों ने जनता को गुमराह किया

मायावती ने कहा कि इस बार लोकसभा चुनाव में विपक्षी दलों ने संविधान बचाने तथा अन्य मुद्दों को लेकर गलत प्रचार करके मतदाताओं को गुमराह किया जिससे बसपा को जबरदस्त नुकसान हुआ है.

जनता को समझना होगा

उन्होंने कहा, ‘‘चुनाव में खासकर गरीब और कमजोर वर्गों के लोग किसी न किसी मुद्दे को लेकर गुमराह हो जाते हैं और अपनी ‘एक मात्र हितैषी' पार्टी बसपा को नुकसान पहुंचाकर उनका ही शोषण करने वाली पार्टी को सत्तासीन करा देते हैं. यह कतई उचित नहीं है. उन्हें बार-बार गुमराह होने की अपनी आदत छोड़नी होगी.''

कांग्रेस ने अंबेडकर को रोका

उत्तर प्रदेश की पूर्व मुख्यमंत्री ने चुनाव प्रचार के दौरान भाजपा राज में संविधान को खतरा बताने वाली कांग्रेस पर निशाना साधते हुए कहा, ‘‘जिस कांग्रेस ने बाबा साहेब भीमराव आंबेडकर को भारतीय संविधान सभा में आने से रोकने के लिये तरह-तरह के हथकंडे अपनाये थे, वह उनके द्वारा बनाये गये संविधान को बचाने की बात कैसे कर सकती है?''

उन्होंने कहा कि कांग्रेस ने आरक्षण तथा अन्य जरूरी मुद्दों पर जब बाबा साहेब की बात नहीं मानी, तब उन्होंने हताश होकर तत्कालीन कांग्रेस सरकार के कानून मंत्री पद से इस्तीफा दे दिया था.

इसके साथ बसपा प्रमुख ने बहुजन समाज के वर्गों को एकजुट होकर अपनी अलग से राजनैतिक पार्टी बनाकर केंद्र और राज्यों की सत्ता भी अपने हाथों में लेने की सलाह दी थी ताकि वे संविधान में दिये गये कानूनी अधिकारों का पूरा लाभ ले सकें.

उन्होंने निकट भविष्य में देश के कुछ राज्यों में होने वाले विधानसभा चुनावों के मद्देनजर पार्टी को हर स्तर पर मजबूत बनाने की हिदायत दी. साथ ही देश के वर्तमान राजनैतिक हालात पर भी चर्चा करते हुये पार्टी के लोगों को सचेत और हमेशा तैयार रहने के लिए भी कहा.

Odisha Congress Expels 5 Party Leaders Over Ink Attack On State Unit Chief

The Odisha Pradesh Congress Committee (OPCC), taking a tough stance over the ink attack on president Sarat Pattanayak, on Sunday expelled five party leaders for a period of six years on the charges of grave indiscipline.

The leaders who were expelled from the party include Prakash Mishra, general secretary, OPCC, Shriyasmita Panda, general secretary Odisha Pradesh Mahila Congress, Sandip Routray, secretary, NSUI, Amresh Parida, state secretary, Youth Congress and Aryan Sasmal, state secretary, NSUI.

The OPCC's Disciplinary Action Committee in a letter on Sunday mentioned that the disturbing action of throwing ink at the party's state president on June 21 by some office bearers is a "very undisciplined act" which damaged the image of the party.

"Based on TV footage, for such anti-party and indisciplinary activities, Sarat Pattanayak, President, OPCC have expelled the following congress persons for a period of 6 years," read a letter issued by Santosh Singh Saluja, Chairman of the Disciplinary Action Committee.

The party had initially accused that some miscreants carried out the misdeed at the behest of ruling Bharatiya Janata Party or some other political party.

However, the expulsion order confirmed that the ink attack on Mr Pattanayak was the handiwork of some disgruntled party workers.

It also brought to fore the internal party squabble which is a cause of concern for the Congress.
