A district education official today alleged that he was "abused and assaulted" by Gurgaon deputy commissioner T L Satyaprakash at the Mini Secretariat in Rajeev Chowk here, a charge denied by the IAS officer.
Bupendra Singh Yadav, Section Officer (Finance) of the District Education Department, alleged that the IAS officer called him to his cabin and "dragged me holding my shirt collar and threatened to slap me". "He also abused me verbally," Yadav said.
He alleged that he had to face the wrath of the IAS officer after he refused to entertain "requests" of a local BJP leader.
Satyaprakash, however, denied the allegations and said, "I did not manhandle Bupendra Singh Yadav. I only rebuked him for irregularities in work."
"I am going to recommend to the senior authority to terminate Yadav from his duty," the deputy commissioner said.
