An RTI activist alleged that a police official deputed at the Zone A office of the Ludhiana Municipal Corporation, near Mata Rani Chowk, misbehaved with him today. He alleged that the official was posted outside the office of MC Commissioner Malwinder Singh Jaggi, where he had gone to attend a hearing of an RTI case.

Kuldeep Singh Khaira, an RTI activist and a resident of Chet Singh Nagar, has made a complaint in writing against police official named Naresh Kumar, PSO of Malwinder Singh Jaggi.

While speaking to The Tribune, Khaira alleged that he had gone to the office of the MC Commissioner to attend the hearing of an RTI case.

"When I tried to enter Jaggi's office, a police official, later identified as Naresh Kumar, stopped him for checking. He stopped me on the pretext of checking a bag containing documents related to the case number 59/2012. He used very abusive language for me and insisted that I should keep my bag outside the office. But when I urged him to check my bag so that I can carry it inside, he again talked very rudely and later did not permit me to enter Jaggi's office," alleged Khaira. Khaira submitted a complaint in this regard to the MC Commissioner.

Darshan Singh, DSP, who has been posted at the Ludhiana Municipal Corporation, said he had not yet received a complaint in this regard. "When I do get a complaint, I will conduct an inquiry into the matter," he added.
