BENGALURU: The continued spat between IPS officer D Roopa Moudgil and IAS officer Rohini Sindhuri reverbrated in the cabinet meeting too on Monday with many ministers voicing that some sort of action needs to be taken against the two officers.
The ministers felt that the catfight between Roopa and Rohini Sindhuri is causing embarrassment to the government and affecting its image. The Opposition could use this to target the government as the tussle has gone public. There is a need to nip this right away and restrictions should be imposed on officers using social media, they felt.
It is expected that the government may either transfer them without giving them any new posting or send them on compulsory leave either on Monday or Tuesday. Roopa is currently posted as managing director, Karnataka State Handicrafts Development Corporation Ltd, whereas Rohini Sindhuri is Endowments Department commissioner.
