Kiran Bhai Patel was arrested for posing as a senior official of the Prime Minister바카라s Officer in Srinagar on March 3. The police insisted that the CID wing of J&K Police gave information to the police about the arrival of an impersonator in Kashmir.
Facing strong criticism and sarcasm from regional and national political parties for providing an alleged conman from Gujarat Kiran Bhai Patel Z- plus security and allowing him to inspect and visit various areas including border regions in Kashmir as a senior PMO official over several months, Jammu and Kashmir government on Wednesday appointed a senior IAS officer to probe 바카라various aspects바카라 of Patel바카라s visits to Kashmir.
The government appointed Divisional Commissioner Kashmir Vijay Kumar Bidhuri as an inquiry officer.
바카라The inquiry officer shall identify the lapses in part of the officers/officials concerned and submit a detailed report within one week,바카라 the order reads.
Patel was arrested for posing as a senior official of the Prime Minister바카라s Officer in Srinagar on March 3. The police insisted that the CID wing of J&K Police gave information to the police about the arrival of an impersonator in Kashmir.
Patel was staying at the Grand Lalit hotel overlooking Dal Lake and had Z- plus security when the police went to arrest him. Since October 2022, he had been claiming himself as Additional Director (Strategy and campaigns) PMO, New Delhi. The police recovered around ten visiting cards and two mobile phones from him.
Patel바카라s Twitter handle is verified as Dr Kiran J Patel. His bio reads, PHD (Commonwealth Uni, Virginia) MBA (IIM TRICHY), M. Tech (Computer Science), B. E. Computer (L D Engineering), Thinker, Strategist, Analyst, Campaign Manager.
The National Conference leader Omar Abdullah has already described Patel바카라s long stay in Kashmir as a PMO official enjoying the security and high-profile protocol as the incompetence of the government. He rejected the assumption that Patel was provided Z-plus security on the recommendations of a deputy commissioner. Omar says the Deputy Commissioner is no one to give security to anyone. 바카라The decision whether to provide security (to anyone) is taken at the Police Headquarters."
"The decision on whether any person should be given the government vehicle is taken at the secretariat. The five-star hotel bill is not cleared by the DC. The Department of Finance does it after a nod from the department of the Protocol. If this is not incompetence then what else it is,바카라 Omar says.
바카라This man was caught, we don바카라t know how many other such people are out there,바카라 Omar says. Echoing the same views, former Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti says, 바카라while Patel바카라s conman act has been exposed, the bigger con 바카라 of presenting the situation in J&K as normal by creating a parallel and make-believe Kashmir 바카라 stands in stark contrast to the actual situation.바카라
