Lucknow: The suspension of IAS officer Durga Shakti Nagpal was revoked by the Uttar Pradesh government, an official statement issued here Sunday said.
She had met Uttar Pradesh chief minister Akhilesh Yadav on Saturday for the first time since her July suspension.

The 2010 batch Indian Administrative Service officer was suspended for allegedly ordering the razing of the wall of a mosque in Gautam Budh Nagar.

Nagpal was suspended as sub-divisional magistrate July 27, attached with the state revenue board and served a charge sheet Aug 4.

The state government in the charge sheet had accused her of taking a hasty administrative decision that lacked foresight and imperilled communal harmony in the region.

In her reply, Nagpal had said that the boundary wall of the under-construction mosque at Kadalpur village in Gautam Budh Nagar was being built on Gram Sabha land and not on private land.
