Jajpur: The child development project officer (CDPO) of Badachana in Odisha’s Jajpur has been booked for allegedly assaulting an Anganwadi supervisor.

According to the supervisor, Subasini Das, CDPO Bhagabati Guru assaulted her on Thursday. The incident took place after the interview for Anganwadi helper posts at Badachana CDPO office around 3 pm. “The CDPO grabbed me by my hair and landed blows and kicks on me. She also slapped me. I screamed for help and was rescued by other anganwadi workers and supervisors,” Das said in her complaint with local police.

The CDPO also filed a counter FIR against the anganwadi supervisor on Friday. “We have registered two separate cases in connection with the incident. Investigation is underway,” said Badachana IIC SK Patra.

In 2016, Bhagabati Guru was held by the vigilance sleuths while accepting bribe from a job aspirant for appointment as Anganwadi worker in Odisha’s Ganjam district.
