IPS Officer Anurag Sujania Resigns Following Transfer After Sagar Hooch TragedyPreviousNext

IPS officer Anurag Sujania resigned from government service days after being removed as Sagar superintendent of police and transferred to police headquarters as assistant inspector general. His resignation, citing personal reasons, was accepted by the Madhya Pradesh DGP and forwarded to the home department for further action. Sujania's transfer followed a hooch tragedy in Sagar district that killed over 20 people, prompting government reshuffles amid ongoing liquor-related incidents in the state. The government has yet to issue final orders on his resignation.
