Madhya Pradesh IPS officer Anurag Sujania, a 2014 batch cadre, quit his service four days after being relieved as Superintendent of Police in Sagar.
Anurag Sujania, an Indian Police Service officer of the 2014 Madhya Pradesh cadre, submitted his resignation on Wednesday, just four days after the state government removed him from the post of Superintendent of Police (SP) in Sagar district. The decision to relieve him of the Sagar charge was taken by the state Home Department, though official reasons were not disclosed.
During Sujania's brief tenure as Sagar SP, the district, along with neighboring Muraina, witnessed a spate of deaths linked to the consumption of illicit, toxic liquor. The incidents drew media attention and prompted investigations by the state excise and police agencies.
Following his resignation, the Madhya Pradesh Police will initiate the formal procedures to process his exit from service. The department has not commented on any pending disciplinary actions or the impact of the liquor‑related fatalities on the decision.
The resignation adds to a series of recent administrative changes within the state's police hierarchy, as officials are reshuffled amid ongoing law‑and‑order challenges.
