Indian Administrative Service officer Durga Shakti Nagpal reached Kadalpur village at 2pm on July 27 following a complaint of illegal construction of a mosque on government land.
The Gautam Budh Nagar sub-divisional magistrate was going by the rule book, but apparently against the ruling Samajwadi Party's chosen leader for the area and into a trap.
Around the time she entered Kadalpur, UP State Agro Industrial Corporation Limited chairperson Narendra Bhati was making hectic calls to district magistrate (DM) Ravikant Singh and senior superintendent of police (SSP) Preetinder Singh.
Bhati, who enjoys cabinet minister rank and has already been declared as the SP candidate from Gautam Budh Nagar parliamentary seat for the next general elections, was telling the DM and SSP to halt the construction, but not raze the wall.
A day earlier, Gurjar leader Bhati had visited Kadalpur and given Rs. 51,000 for the mosque's construction.
Nagpal asked the villagers to demolish the wall themselves. The 2010-batch IAS officer, who was breaking the back of the sand mafia in the district, was suspended the same evening.
