NTR District Collector S. Dilli Rao suspended Deputy Tahsildar of Veerullapadu mandal on the charges of dereliction of duty after she allegedly left the office while a review meeting via video conference was under way, on Wednesday.
According to a release by the district administration, Deputy Tahsildar S. Krishnaveni attended the video conference on land resurvey, one-time settlement scheme, and Jagananna Smart Townships in place of the Tahsildar, who was on leave.
