BJP mandal chief questions police probe after councillor's husband held with MD in Harda

Police in Sirali, Harda district, arrested Narayan Banke, husband of a BJP councillor, with 7 grams of MD. Following the arrest, BJP town mandal president Anil Rajput has questioned the way the police are working.

Rajput demanded that the main supplier in the case be identified and arrested. He also said everyone linked to the illegal trade should be investigated. He alleged that an MD syndicate is operating in the district and that, instead of reaching the main supplier, the police are arresting only one person. He also demanded that the person who sold the MD to Narayan Banke be identified and proceeded against.

Rajput also questioned the posting of Head Constable Tushar Dhangar and his manner of working. He said Dhangar's home district is Harda itself, and that an inquiry should be held into how he is serving in his own district.

Responding to the allegations, Sirali police station in-charge Sitaram Patel said the police are taking impartial action in accordance with the law. He said legal action would be taken against whoever is found guilty in the investigation.
