A video clip of the Chief Conservator of Forests (CCF) A K Sinha, levelling allegations against Assistant Conservator of Forest (ACF) Lingaraju for allegedly not escorting him has been circulated on the social media.
It is said that as ACF Lingaraju was busy fixing radio collar for an elephant at Nallulli village in the taluk on Wednesday and he could not go to escort CCF Sinha, who had come from Hassan. He had sent one of his staffers, which has allegedly irked the CCF.
The CCF, who reached the spot took to task Lingaraju for insulting him. Lingaraju tried to convince him saying that he could not come as solving wild jumbo menace was more important and there is no rule that the ACF should go to escort the CCF.
