An FIR was lodged against three Patwari Union officials and others for submitting a memorandum at the Anupur collectorate despite a court‑issued prohibitory order, prompting the union to question the action.
The Anupur collectorate in Madhya Pradesh witnessed a breach of a court‑issued prohibitory order when members of the Patwari Union handed over a memorandum despite the directive. Law enforcement responded by registering a First Information Report (FIR) against three senior officials of the union along with several other participants.
According to the FIR, the officials knowingly disregarded the order, which had been imposed to prevent any official communication pending a pending legal matter. The union, however, contended that it had informed the Additional District Magistrate (ADM) in advance via WhatsApp and that the ADM had replied with an "OK," implying tacit approval.
The FIR cites the violation of the prohibitory order as a criminal offense and opens a formal investigation into the conduct of the union officials. The case underscores the tension between local administrative directives and the actions of government employee unions in the state.
Authorities have not yet disclosed further details about potential penalties or the progress of the investigation, but the filing signals a strict stance on compliance with court orders in Madhya Pradesh.
