The accused has been identified as Bhagwandin Chaurasia. According to EOW officials, complainant, Brijendra Mani Tripathi, a farmer and resident of village Narraha, Tehsil Guhd in Rewa district, lodged a complaint that his daughter’s EWS certificate application had been sent for verification from Balaghat office to Guhd Tehsil office in October 2024.
