As the police deployed outside the office had prior information of his suicide bid, they caught Chauhan and brought him to the police station. The police let him go after issuing a stern warning and taking in writing that hewould not any such step in the future."According to Chauhan's statement, last year, a well was approved for his agricultural land under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act, for which he had invested Rs 1.80 lakh and had submitted the bills for approval and release of payment. While several months have passed since then, his payment has not been released yet.

If the well is constructed following all the guidelines, his payment will be released."Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
