The Haryana Police have launched a formal inquiry into allegations of sexual harassment leveled against Jind Superintendent of Police (SP) Sumit Kumar. The investigation was prompted by the emergence of a letter reportedly written by a female constable, detailing instances of alleged misconduct. This letter, addressed to the Chief Minister, is said to carry the signatures of seven female officers who have supported the claims. The allegations have sparked widespread discussions about workplace safety within the police force.

In response, the Haryana Police have appointed Fatehabad Superintendent of Police Astha Modi to lead a fact-finding inquiry. The inquiry aims to gather evidence, interview the involved parties, and submit a detailed report. Meanwhile, wrestler-turned-politician Vinesh Phogat has called for stringent action against any individuals found guilty. This case has underscored the need for stringent policies to prevent workplace harassment and ensure accountability within law enforcement.
