Constable was transferring liquor from his police vehicle to another when he was nabbed
Hyderabad Range DIG N. Shivashanker Reddy, on Saturday, suspended Wadapally Station House Officer D. Vijay Kumar for failing to monitor and check the conduct of his subordinates, particularly of a constable who was caught red-handed by Andhra Pradesh police for cross-border liquor smuggling last week.
The incident, according to the suspension order made available to the media on Sunday, was reported on November 15, when constable P. Shravan Kumar loaded the station’s Dial 100 police vehicle with illegal liquor and crossed the border.
The liquor was being transferred from the police vehicle to the vehicle of one Koteshwar Rao near Ramapuram crossroads on the other side, when the Dachepally police nabbed him.
In 2021, five women from Mayithara, four of them MGNREGA (Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act) workers, found a common ground in their desire to create a sustainable livelihood by growing vegetables. Rajamma M., Mary Varkey, Valsala L., Elisho S., and Praseeda Sumesh, aged between 70 and 39, pooled their savings, rented a piece of land and began their collective vegetable farming journey under the Deepam Krishi group.
