Officer suspended for irregularities in demarcation

Chief Minister Manohar Lal has suspended Estate Officer Vijay Kumar of Haryana Shahri Vikas Pradhikaran (HSVP) Rewari due to work negligence and irregularities in response to a complaint received through the CM Window. Chief Minister’s OSD, Sh Bhupeshwar Dayal, stated that Savita, a resident of Sector-18, Rewari, filed a complaint through the CM Window regarding the incorrect demarcation of her plot. The complaint implicated HSVP’s Estate Officer, Vijay Kumar, and Junior Engineer, Gaurav Yadav, in the alleged misdemarcation.

Bhupeshwar Dayal highlighted that the complaint was initially forwarded to the accused officer, Vijay Kumar, for further action. However, in accordance with government instructions, investigations against a first-class officer are supposed to be conducted by an officer one rank above. Unfortunately, this instruction was not observed in this case.

Consequently, instructions were issued to initiate departmental action against Vijay Kumar and Gaurav Yadav for addressing their own complaint. Despite these instructions, the department has not submitted any action taken report in this matter.
Bhupeshwar Dayal has said that, in light of the mentioned issue, the Chief Minister has promptly suspended Vijay Kumar, the Estate Officer of HSVP in Rewari. In addition, the

Additional Chief Secretary of the Town and Country Planning Department has been directed to expedite the submission of an action report on this matter.
It is pertinent to mention that the number of complaints received on the CM Window continues to rise. Out of approximately 13 lakh complaints received, more than 92 percent have been successfully resolved.
