Railway official accused of molestation transferred

A senior railway official who has been charged with outraging the modesty of a female employee, was transferred by railway authorities even as the police issued a notice asking him to appear before them.
Railway authorities confirmed senior Divisional Commercial Manager (DCM) R P Meena's transfer to the Rail Claims Tribunal at Jaipur following an order from the GM (North-Western Railway) R C Agarwal two days back.
The transfer order comes even as he is on a forced 15-day leave after the allegation.
Meanwhile, Jodhpur police issued a notice to him asking him to appear before the police for interrogation by Friday.

"He has not yet appeared before the investigating officer and instead sent a written submission terming the complaint of molestation by the employee as a conspiracy against him," a police officer said.
If Meena failed to appear before the investigating officer in the stipulated time, a police team will be sent to arrest him, the officer said.
A female railway employee (ticket and reservation clerk) had lodged a complaint on 23 December accusing Meena of molestation and harassment and sought action against him.
