Bihar government has withheld the salaries of 104 police personnel for failing to submit crucial case files. The decision stems from repeated delays and non-compliance with administrative orders, which has caused setbacks in ongoing investigations. This disciplinary measure aims to ensure accountability and prompt submission of official documentation, which is essential for the judicial process.
Authorities believe this step will prompt more diligence among the police force. However, some officials argue that systemic issues and a lack of adequate resources are contributing factors to these delays. The matter has sparked discussions on the working conditions of law enforcement in the state.
