Live Law  

The Uttar Pradesh Government on Thursday transferred, along with 16 other IAS officers, Hathras District Magistrate Praveen Kumar Laxkar to Mirzapur in the same capacity. It is important to note that the Allahabad High Court had specifically asked the Senior Counsel appearing for the State Government as to whether it was fair and reasonable to allow the District Magistrate to continue at Hathras during pendency of the investigation as also these proceedings before it regarding illegal cremation etc. When the Court asked Advocate Raju, Senior Counsel appearing for the State as to what are his instructions with regard to continuance of the District Magistrate at Hathras, the Counsel had submitted that after pondering over the issue Government has decided not to transfer the District Magistrate. Background The Lucknow Bench of the Allahabad High Court had taken suo moto cognizance of the Hathras gang rape case on Thursday, stating that is an "extremely sensitive" matter, touching upon the basic human/ fundamental rights of the citizens.
