6 railway cops suspended over beating of woman, her grandson in MP

The Madhya Pradesh government on Thursday, August 29, suspended six Government Railway Police (GRP) personnel, including a station in-charge, in connection with the beating of a woman and her grandson in Katni district.

Opposition Congress had shared a video of the incident a day before, claiming that the victims belong to the Dalit



community.

“An old video of the beating of GRP Katni police station cops is going viral on social media. After I took cognizance of it, I have asked DIG Rail to go to the spot for probing the incident. As per the preliminary probe, I have ordered suspension with immediate effect of then GRP police station in-charge, a head constable, and four constables,” Chief Minister Mohan Yadav said in a post on X.
