💨 Abstract

In Ghazipur, UP, the district magistrate has suspended 10 revenue officials (Lekhpals) for issuing fraudulent income certificates. These certificates were used to obtain government jobs and benefits. The DM discovered that Lekhpals were issuing Below Poverty Line (BPL) certificates to individuals above the poverty line. As a result, nine appointments were halted, and one appointment cancellation led to a resignation.
