The head warden of a prison was on Saturday placed under suspension after a video showing him dancing with a woman inside the jail premises went viral on social media.
"Haryana Inspector General of Police (Prisons) has suspended Satwan Singh, Head Warden, District Jail Karnal with effect from April 1, 2017, for his involvement in a video of cultural programme at District Jail Jind, which went viral on social media," a state government spokesman said here.
The video showed the jail warden, in uniform, performing some vulgar dance steps with a professional dancer on a stage inside the Jind jail premises during a function organised to mark the Holi festival.
Other jail officials were also seen in the video.
In the video, people were also seen throwing currency notes on the woman dancer during her performance.
