Uttar Pradesh suspends five revenue officials over negligence and case delays
The Uttar Pradesh revenue council, acting on a review by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, suspended four tehsildars and one Naib tehsildar. The officials were suspended for alleged negligence in land measurement (pamaish) and for slow disposal of pending cases in revenue courts. The suspension was announced as a disciplinary action pending further inquiry. The state government described the move as a strong step to address administrative lapses in the revenue department. The action was reported by multiple Hindi-language outlets on the same day. No information about appeals or legal challenges was provided in the reports.
