Senior IAS officer Surya Pratap Singh, who is due to retire this December is so fed up with Uttar Pradesh, he wants to exit four months early.
He says it has become impossible to work with any honesty in the Akhilesh Singh Yadav Government.
He has written a long letter to the Chief Secretary asking it to be treated as a request for voluntary retirement.
According to The Telegraph, Surya Pratap Singh's letter comments that IAS officers, who did not fulfill the illegitimate demands of even petty local-level leaders, got either transferred or suspended.
"Every week 24 IAS and IPS officers get transferred in Uttar Pradesh," Surya Pratap Singh claimed.
But he has been transferred six times in the past year after he cracked down on mass copying.
A 1982 batch officer, Surya Pratap Singh, is now principal secretary in the bureau of public enterprises - a punishment posting.
