Amid the lockdown for the

novel coronavirus outbreak, a tehsildar in Maharashtra's Jalna was on Thursday suspended for alleged laxity in work, said an official.

The order by Collector Ravindra Binwade, signed by the deputy collector, said Badnapur Tehsildar Chaya Pawar was not available in the district during the coronavirus outbreak, and that there were irregularities in drought aid distribution, carelessness in filing offences against illegal sand transport, and less amount of tax collection.
