On May 17, tensions escalated in Manihari village of Shiv, where a clash broke out between villagers, police, and the administration. The conflict arose when company workers reportedly attempted to forcibly install high-tension electric poles in a field.When the affected family resisted, company representatives called the police. During the confrontation, SDM Anil Kumar Jain was allegedly seen manhandling a woman, which further fueled public outrage.MLA Ravindra Singh Bhati condemned the incident and reiterated his allegations against Jain, stating that the SDM was complicit in corporate land dealings near the border. Reacting to the APO orders, Bhati remarked, “This is the result of the people’s struggle.”In addition to the Ramsar officials, the Chief Minister also issued APOs to SDO Gulab Chand Verma and the Tehsildar of Raipur (Beawar) over administrative lapses. Just days earlier, the SPs of Jhunjhunu and Bikaner were APO-ed following reported security lapses during the Chief Minister’s visits.
