NAKODAR/SHAHKOT/NURMAHAL
Work in most government offices in Nakodar, Shahkot subdivisions, and Nurmahal sub-tehsil remained paralyzed on the second day Tuesday following the revenue officers and the ministerial services unions’ decision to support the strike of Punjab Civil Service (PCS) officers who are on mass casual leave in protest of the illegal arrest of a colleague in Ludhiana by the state vigilance bureau.
PCS officer Narinder Singh Dhaliwal, who was posted as Regional Transport Authority (RTA) in Ludhiana, was arrested on Friday by the vigilance bureau for allegedly taking bribes from transporters for sparing them challans for offending vehicles, the bureau had said.
