Saharanpur ADM Faces Probe Over Alleged Misconduct Toward MP Iqra Hasan

The inquiry under District Magistrate Manish Bansal will clarify whether the ADM’s conduct warrants disciplinary measures.

Overview

  • Divisional Commissioner Atal Kumar Rai directed Saharanpur DM Manish Bansal to investigate the July 1 encounter after Hasan lodged a formal grievance.
  • MP Iqra Hasan and Shama Parveen say ADM Santosh Bahadur Singh declined to meet their constituency concerns, then reprimanded them and asked them to leave.
