An officer of a state-run power distribution company was suspended on Wednesday over having a picture of Osama bin Laden in his office describing the Al-Qaeda terrorist as "world's best junior engineer", officials said.
Ravindra Prakash Gautam, sub-divisional officer (SDO) with the Dakshinanchal Vidyut Vitran Nigam Ltd (DVVNL), placed a picture of bin Laden in his office, with a note below it that read "Respected Osama bin Laden, world's best junior engineer", the officials said.
After bin Laden's picture with the message went viral on social media, senior district officials took a cognizance and ordered the SDO's suspension. The picture of bin Laden was also removed from the office, they said.
