MP Text Book Corporation Chairman Saubhagya Singh Set To Get Powers Back After Vehicle Rally Row

Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh: The government of Madhya Pradesh is set to restore the authority of MP Text Book Corporation chairman Saubhagya Singh, who had been barred since May 14. The ban was initiated after Singh organized a large vehicle rally from Ujjain to Bhopal, disregarding the party's guidelines following Prime Minister Narendra Modi's appeal to conserve petrol and diesel.

Initially, Prime Minister Modi had urged citizens to save fuel, and Hemant Khandelwal, the state president of the party, had advised that chairmen of boards and corporations should conduct their oath-taking ceremonies discretely. Singh's overt display of his oath-taking ceremony, however, sparked criticism. Consequently, the Chief Minister's Office issued a show-cause notice against Singh, imposing various restrictions on him, including barring him from entering the corporation premises, utilizing facilities, employing official vehicles, interacting with staff, participating in meetings, making financial decisions, and signing documents as the corporation's head.

Following Singh's response to the notice, the government intends to pardon him and revert his rights. Although there were discussions about transferring the charge of the corporation to Chief Minister Mohan Yadav, Yadav opted to have the office restore Singh's authority instead.
