बुलंदशहर में 3 दिसम्बर को इस्पेक्टर सुबोध कुमार की भीड़ द्वारा हत्या पर देश के 83 ब्यूरोक्रेट्स ने मुख्यमंत्री आदित्यनाथ से इस्तीफा की मांग की है.
बिहार के चीफ सेक्र्टरी रैंक के अफसर रहे एमए इब्राहिमी समेत 83 नौकरशाहों के दस्तखत से जारी इस पत्र में इलाहाबाद हाईकोर्ट से अपील की गयी है कि वह इस मामले में संज्ञान ले और एक पुलिस अधिकारी की हत्यारे को सजा दिलाये.
याद रहे कि 3 दिसम्बर को बुलंदशहर के सियाना थाने में हिंदुत्ववादी संगठनों के अतिवादियों ने गोकशी के कथित मामले के नाम पर थाने को घेर लिया था और वहां पदस्थापित पुलिस अफसर सुबोध कुमार की हत्या कर दी थी. इस दौरान सैंकड़ों गाड़ियां जला दी गयीं और इस दौरान एक युवक की भी मौत हो गयी.
आईएएस, आईपीएस और आईएफएस कैडर के रिटायर्ड अफसरों ने इस मामले को काफी गंभीरता से लेते हुए मांग की है कि इस मामले में राजनीतिक नेतृत्व ने दो सुमादयों के बीच घोर नफरत फैलाने की कोशिश की जिसके नतीजे में यह जघन्य वारदात अंजाम दिया गया. इस ग्रूप ने मुख्यमंत्री आदित्यवाथ के एक्शन और बयानों पर आपत्ति जताते हुए उनसे इस्तीफे की मांग की है.
इस ग्रूप ने राज्य के मुख्यसचिव, डीजीपी और अन्य संबंधित अधिकारियों से अपील की है कि वे कानून का राज स्थापित करने में अपने दायित्व का निर्वाह करने में कोई कोताही ना करें.
पूर्व नौकरशाहों के ग्रूप ने इंस्पेक्टर सुबोध कुमार की बहादुरी और साहस के साथ ड्युटी निभाने पर गर्व व्यक्त करते हुए उनके योगदान की सराहना की.
इन पूर्व अधिकारियों ने इस बात पर भी जोर दिया कि अल्पसंख्यकों, दलितों और आदिवासियों के खिलाफ घृणा की राजनीति की आलोचना की और कहा कि प्रशासनिक अधिकारियों का यह दायित्व है कि वे अपने कर्तव्य का निर्वाहण करते हुए इन समुदायों की सुरक्षा और उनके साथ इंसाफ को सुनिश्चित करें.
