RAJOURI, Apr 28: District Panchayat Election Officer (Deputy Commissioner) Rajouri Abhishek Sharma has placed Block Development Officer Plangher, Mohtshim Hanief, under suspension with immediate effect over poor progress in the ongoing Panchayat Electoral Roll Revision-2026.
It said during special camps held on Apr 25 and Apr 26, all concerned officers were directed to achieve the benchmark of 4 percent addition in the electoral roll within the stipulated time. However, the officer allegedly failed to discharge duties properly, resulting in delayed and incomplete revision of rolls, non-adherence to prescribed guidelines and timelines, and lack of supervision over field staff.
Accordingly, the officer was placed under suspension pending further inquiry into the matter. During suspension, the officer has been attached to the office of Assistant Commissioner Panchayat Rajouri and has been directed not to leave headquarters without prior permission.
