Indore water contamination: Official suspended over reference to ‘ghanta’ row

Sub-divisional magistrate (SDM) in Madhya Pradesh's Dewas district was suspended for allegedly copying verbatim from a Congress memorandum during an order to maintain law and order. The SDM issued the order in response to a planned protest by the Congress, which criticized Minister Kailash Vijayvargiya's use of the derogatory term "ghanta" in relation to the Indore water contamination crisis. The incident has sparked controversy over the government's handling of the situation and the death toll from contaminated drinking water.
