Resigned after meeting Rahul Gandhi: BJP spokesperson

He claims that the motive behind the resignation is to spread the agenda of Congress in the UP elections. He wrote that an IAS is getting a lot of PR that he has resigned but it should not be told that he has resigned after meeting Rahul Gandhi in the dark of night so that Pappu's agenda can be spread in the UP elections.

Prashant Umrao said that he always wanted to be a king, hence he did not like the post of Joint Secretary, because after DM, he had to become the Commissioner directly. The narcissism and desire for PR was so much that Modi government's Har Ghar Jal Yojana was inaugurated as its own effort and the local MP was not called.
He said that what was the reason that he did not become a public representative of any of the districts where he lived and behaved like a king everywhere? Now all the public representatives who have been elected by the public 2-3 times cannot be bad. Her husband used to work in a private job, after becoming the king, he got into the brokerage business and collected crores of rupees, some part of which went to his PR people, hence out of hundreds of IAS of Uttar Pradesh, only one name was heard working.

What did the Samajwadi Party write?
Samajwadi Party has written on social media that honest officers are leaving their jobs due to pressure, crime and corruption of BJP members in power. The resignation of a senior honest IAS from this service is a clear proof that he was being put under pressure and forced to commit corruption. BJP people were doing corruption, committing crimes and defaming honest IAS.
Former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav has targeted the Yogi government over the resignation of Divya Mittal, a 2013 batch IAS officer of Uttar Pradesh cadre and DM of Deoria, Mirzapur and Sant Kabirnagar districts. Former CM Akhilesh Yadav said, “Honest officers are not able to work in this government. Corruption is so much that honest officers are not able to work. Honest officers are resigning and writing. Even in the Ram Mandir case, the officers who are honest are not able to work honestly, there is so much pressure on them.”
