Madhya Pradesh CM Mohan Yadav Suspends Officials Over Unpaid Childbirth Aid
A leader of a state in India called Madhya Pradesh is Mohan Yadav.
He started a special program called the Jan Vishwas Abhiyan.
During this program, he visited a town called Chhindwara.
A woman named Sita Tumram told him the government did not give her money to help with her new baby.
Another woman named Meena Banjara said she did not get money from a farming program called Kisan Samman Nidhi.
The leader was not happy, so he temporarily removed some government workers from their jobs.
He told other workers to give the women the money they needed.
He also punished a few more workers for not sharing other government money.
He said officials should solve people's problems with care and that carelessness in welfare work will not be tolerated.
Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav suspended the district chief medical and health officer after woman Sita Tumram complained she did not receive financial aid for childbirth.
Yadav ordered the suspension of a Tehsildar and a Patwari after a misleading report deprived woman Meena Banjara of aid under the Kisan Samman Nidhi.
He directed officials to help the woman using the discretionary financial grant.
The chief executive officer of Janpad Panchayat and the labour officer of Chorai Janpad each had one increment stopped for failing to give financial aid under the Sambal Yojna.
Show-cause notices were ordered for the sub-divisional magistrate and Patwari of Chorai after a CM Helpline complaint about land records.
