A powerful politico had used his clout to transfer a Divisional Secretary out of his area for not allowing his sidekicks to engage in illicit sand mining.
Â
Earlier, the politico had abused the Divisional Secretary concerned calling him âbooruwaâ (Donkey) for âharassingâ his sidekicks, who had been mining sand illicitly. Angered by the politicoâs conduct, a group of employees had booed at the politico, when he was leaving the scene.
The person who succeeded the Secretary who was transferred out is said to be a hand-picked one of the politico, they say.
