Ludhiana, September 11
Transfer order of MC Secretary Jasdev Singh Sekhon has been revoked by the Department of Local Government. Sekhon, who was earlier transferred to the Abohar MC, has been transferred back to the Ludhiana MC.
Questions were raised over the transfer of Sekhon amid drive against plastic carry bags in the city last month. During the drive, a team, led by Sekhon, had seized over 1,200-kg plastic carry bags from different locations in the city.
A number of city residents, including social activists, members of various NGOs and MC employees, had gathered outside Nehru Rose Garden on August 9, demanding cancellation of the transfer order.
