NEW DELHI: Anguished over the recent suspension of a senior joint secretary at the Ministry of Home Affairs, IAS officers are planning to take his case to the Prime Minister's Office and the cabinet secretary. We feel that there has been gross miscarriage of justice in Mr Dwivedi's case. "We have also taken up the matter with the IAS association," one of Dwivedi's batchmates said, speaking on the condition of anonymity. Such rush will send a wrong message and may lead to a situation where reforms may come to astandstill. While Dwivedi and the undersecretary were suspended, the deputy secretary was spared, the official said, on the condition of anonymity.
