SP hits back at Sonia for writing to PM over suspension of Durga

The Samajwadi Party-led Uttar Pradesh government hit back at UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi for asking Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to look into the suspension of IAS officer Durga Shakti Nagpal by the state government. The party asked where was Sonia when IAS officer Ashok Khemka was being victimised for speaking against her son-in-law Robert Vadra in Haryana.

Sonia Gandhi in her letter to the Prime Minister had said, "There is a widespread concern because the officer in the course of her public duties was seen to be standing up to vested interests engaging in illegal activity. We must ensure that the officer is not unfairly treated."
