The controversy began when Congress chief Jitu Patwari accused officials in Narmadapuram of paying bribes to secure their postings.

Chief Minister Yadav has called for reflection on Patwari’s comments and emphasized that such allegations undermine the reputation of dedicated public servants. He stressed that the state government remains steadfast in supporting its officials and ensuring they can perform their duties without fear.
