Alwar Collector Pukhraj Sen; Hanumangarh Superintendent of Police (SP); Sudhir Chaudhary, Churu SP; Rajesh Kumar Meena and Bhiwadi SP Karan Sharma were relieved with immediate effect on Wednesday. This action was taken due to illegal liquor reaching Gujarat border through these districts.

On the instructions of the Election Department, the Personnel Department has relieved the Alwar Collector and has been instructed to hand over his charge to the Deputy District Election Officer, Alwar. Similarly, Bhiwadi, Khairthal-Tijara SP Karan Sharma has also been relieved of duty with immediate effect.
