Guntur Superintendent of Police Vakul Jindal has issued a show-cause notice to the Medikonduru Station House Officer and ordered a preliminary inquiry. The action follows a complaint from State Chief Information Commissioner Vajja Srinivasa Rao that he and Commission officials were denied entry into the police station on July 13 while inspecting RTI records. The notice says such conduct, if proved, amounts to failure of duty and disobedience of lawful procedure. The SHO must submit a written explanation within seven days. The Thulluru SDPO will conduct the inquiry and submit a report.
