Haryana Orders Transfer of Officials Caught in Corruption Cases to Prevent Influence
The Haryana government has issued new directives preventing officials caught in corruption sting operations and released on bail from being posted at the same station where their cases are pending. The order mandates transferring such employees to locations outside the concerned jurisdiction, preferably beyond neighboring districts, to avoid influencing or intimidating complainants and witnesses. This applies to officials in judicial custody who may secure bail later. Senior administrative and police authorities are responsible for enforcing the directive, which covers government departments, boards, corporations, and universities.
