Suspension of Gobra Nawapara station head follows May 29 raid; primary keyword: Gobra Nawapara TI suspended

 The Raipur rural police on Friday suspended Gobra Nawapara station inspector (TI) Diwesh (reported as Diipesh in some notes) Jaiswal after allegations that he acted suspiciously during a raid on an illegal liquor sale on May 29, officials said.

According to the office of Raipur Rural Superintendent of Police (SP) Shweta Shrivastava Sinha, Jaiswal was placed under suspension pending an inquiry into his conduct during an operation by the ACCU Raipur Dehat unit at a roadside dhaba run by one Lalla Sonwani in Gobra Nawapara. The action order said the TI’s behaviour during the raid raised “serious disciplinary concerns.”

Raid and sequence

Initial reports indicate the Dehat ACCU team conducted the raid in the late evening on May 29 after receiving complaints of long-running illegal liquor sales in the Gobra Nawapara police station area. Officers reportedly found bottles of illicit liquor being sold at the dhaba and detained several persons for questioning.

Sources familiar with the matter said TI Jaiswal arrived at the scene after the Dehat team began the operation. The SP’s order alleges that Jaiswal had a private conversation with the dhaba proprietor away from other officers during the course of the raid. That exchange, the order added, prompted doubts about whether the TI exercised proper control of the spot and whether he followed instructions from senior officers.

Official action

SP Shweta Shrivastava Sinha formally ordered Jaiswal’s suspension from duty and placed him under the administrative control of the Raipur Rural SP office. The suspension order described the conduct as “serious indiscipline” and assigned Additional Superintendent of Police (Rural) Abhishek Jha to carry out an initial probe. Jha has been directed to submit a report within seven days, the SP office said.

“An inquiry has been entrusted to ASP (Rural) Abhishek Jha,” an official brief from the SP office stated. “Further action will be considered on the basis of the inquiry report.”

Background of complaints

Local residents and traders had lodged repeated complaints about illicit liquor being sold in parts of Gobra Nawapara for months, according to police sources. Senior district police officials had instructed field units to act on these complaints, but patrols and ad-hoc raids failed to fully curb the trade, sources said.

The ACCU’s Dehat team, which handles anti-contraband and special enforcement duties in rural pockets, has been conducting intelligence-led operations across Raipur district. This raid is among several recent actions targeting bootleggers and unlicensed sellers in peripheral areas.

Impact and public reaction

The suspension has been interpreted by many within the police department as a firm message against alleged collusion or laxity during enforcement drives. “Any hint of impropriety will be examined and acted upon,” a senior officer in the district headquarters told reporters on condition of anonymity. Local residents welcomed the move, saying visible action against errant officials would help reduce the illicit trade that they blame for crime and social problems.

At the Gobra Nawapara dhaba, proprietors and neighbours called the developments “disturbing” but said wider enforcement was needed. “We have complained multiple times about bottles being sold here,” a nearby shopkeeper said. “If anyone in uniform protects them, the problem won’t stop.”

Next steps

The inquiry led by ASP Jha will examine the raid records, statements of ACCU officers present, and any CCTV or mobile-phone footage that may exist. If the probe finds evidence of misconduct or dereliction, departmental proceedings and criminal investigations could follow, officials said.

The Raipur Rural SP office has asked for the investigative report within seven days, after which it will decide on suspension continuation, departmental charges, or restoration. Meanwhile, the ACCU and local police said operations against illegal liquor will continue in Gobra Nawapara and neighbouring areas.

Rewa Hospital Chaos: Addict’s Rampage Raises Security Lapses

Young Man Terrorises Wards

A man in an inebriated state ran amok inside the Sanjay Gandhi Hospital campus here late last night, triggering panic among patients and their families. The accused reportedly rolled across multiple wards for nearly an hour before staff intervened.

Security Guards Remain Silent

Officials said the unidentified youth, believed to be under the influence of a narcotic substance, entered the hospital premises around 11 pm. Eyewitness accounts confirmed he moved from one ward to another in a semi-conscious state, creating a ruckus. Disturbingly, security personnel present at the facility remained mute spectators during the initial phase.

Public Safety Questioned

The incident has now shifted focus to the hospital’s preparedness for handling emergencies. According to sources, no security guard attempted to restrain or remove the man for a considerable duration. This has raised serious questions about patient safety and the vigilance of the duty staff at the government-run facility.

Management Responds

“As soon as we received information, a team was dispatched to remove the individual. Such behaviour is unacceptable on hospital grounds,” said Dr. Rahul Mishra, the hospital superintendent. He confirmed that orders have been issued to tighten security protocols across the campus.

Official Inquiry Ordered

Dr. Mishra added that a formal inquiry has been initiated to identify lapses. “Responsibilities of the guards on duty are being fixed. If negligence is proven, strict action will follow. Patient security remains our top priority,” he told reporters.

Staff Responsibility Under Review

Hospital sources indicated that the guards claimed they were waiting for backup. However, the administration has rejected this explanation. Internal discussions are now underway to reassign duties and possibly outsource a private security agency for better response times.

What Happens Next

The Rewa police have been notified and are scanning CCTV footage to identify the youth. Meanwhile, the hospital has announced a daily drill for security personnel. Officials stated that a detailed report will be submitted to the district health department within three days. This incident serves as a wake-up call for better crisis management in public health facilities across the region.
