Ex-CM Hooda, Sirsa MP Kumari Selja demand impartial probe into IPS officer Y Puran Kumar’s suicide case

Former Chief Minister and Leader of Opposition Bhupinder Singh Hooda has demanded an impartial investigation into the suicide case of IPS officer Y Puran Kumar.

He said no culprit should be spared and no innocent should be harmed. “It is the state government’s responsibility to ensure justice in this case,” he added.

Hooda said the law and order situation in the state has completely deteriorated.

“In this context, the suicide of such a senior police officer is a very tragic incident. It has shaken the entire state. If a senior police officer is not safe today, one can imagine the plight of ordinary citizens,” he added.

On October 8, Ambala Congress MP Varun Chaudhary alleged that senior officers in the BJP government are harassing Scheduled Caste (SC) officers, pushing them into severe mental distress.

“An FIR should be registered against those officials whose names have been mentioned in the suicide note. Also, all documents recovered from Kumar’s house should be preserved,” he had added.

Sirsa MP and former Union Minister Kumari Selja said, “This is not only a personal tragedy, but also raises serious questions about the entire administrative system. If an honest officer is compelled to take such an extreme step because of the system’s failures, it is a matter of grave concern. I express my deep condolences to the bereaved family.”

She added, "At the same time, I demand an impartial and high-level investigation into the incident so that the truth comes out and no other officer has to face such a situation in the future."
