MP Officials Protest Appointment of Additional Director
Some officials in Madhya Pradesh's Women and Child Development department are upset.
They don't think a new person named Lata Sharanagat should be given a high position.
They believe she is too new to the department compared to others.
They also think she may not know enough about the department's work.
The officials asked their minister to fix this problem.
The minister said she would look into it.
They feel it's unfair because she's less experienced than them.
The officers want the minister to cancel the appointment.
Officials in MP's Women and Child Development (WCD) department are protesting the appointment of Lata Sharanagat as additional director.
The officials argue Sharanagat is junior to them and the appointment violates established department practices.
The protesting officials submitted a memorandum to Minister Nirmala Bhuria to cancel Sharanagat's posting.
Officials cited that Sharanagat, a deputy collector, lacks expertise in the department's welfare schemes.
Minister Bhuria stated that she would take necessary steps after the officials raised concerns.
