Punjab Chief Electoral Officer Dr. S. Karuna Raju

The Election Commission has taken a big action in Punjab. The commission changed the DC of 2 districts and the SSP of 8 districts. The changed SSP also includes close relatives of a Punjab government minister. Now Vineet Kumar has been made DC in Bathinda and Girish Dayalan in Ferozepur. During the election, these two officers will also have the responsibility of the District Election Officer. The special thing is that both these districts were also in discussion about the security lapse of the PM.

These 8 SSPs including the minister’s relatives should be removed
