Madikeri, Sept 28: A police constable attached to the Ponnampete police station in Kodagu district has been suspended for his Facebook post on Indian army’s protest against Prime Minister Narendra Modi led-union government’s policies.

Constable Shamim had shared the post he had received from others against the Prime Minister. The shared post mentioned protests by the Army, and asked, “Have you seen protests by Armymen earlier? Have you heard of such things? Does the Modi government need more shame than this one?”

Taking exception to his post, one B S Nandakumar from Madikeri, who claims himself to be an RTI activist, had filed a complaint with Superintendent of Police, Kodagu, P. Rajendra Prasad.

Confirming the suspension of Shamim pending an inquiry, Prasad said that a member of the police force should not identify himself with any party or ideology, which amounts to indiscipline under the Karnataka Police Act.
