Today, at least 200 senior bureaucrats of the Delhi government went on a day's protest leave over the suspension of two officials. The decision was taken by the members of the DANICS (Delhi, Andaman and Nicobar Islands Civil Service) Officers' Association.
Subhash Chandra, special secretary (Prisons) and Yashpal Garg, special secretary (Prosecution), were suspended by Delhi's Aam Aadmi Party government for allegedly refusing to sign a file pertaining to the Cabinet decision to increase salary of public prosecutors.
However, the Union Home Ministry termed the suspension as null and void.
