Bhopal: In an attempt to end the raging infighting between Madhya Pradesh Congress leaders, Chief Minister Kamal Nath has agreed to state Forest Minister Umang Singhar’s demand to transfer Excise officer Sanjeev Dubey from Dhar.
Singhar had accused Dubey of being former chief minister Digvijaya Singh’s aide after the latter posted a video on the social media in which Dubey was seen speaking to another officer on alleged payments being made to state ministers, including Singhar, by liquor mafia.
Singhar had on Tuesday night met Kamal Nath and levelled serious charges against Digvijay Singh calling him a “blackmailer”. He has also written to Congress Interim President Sonia Gandhi alleging that Digvijay Singh was trying to destabilise the state’s Congress government to establish himself as the party’s power centre.
According to party sources, Singhar has distanced himself from the media after Kamal Nath asked him to refrain from making any statements.
On Wednesday, Singhar told the media: “I talked to the Chief Minister and state in-charge Deepak Bawariya. I have kept my view point in front of them.”
