Central IAS Association Condemns Bihar Government’s Decision to Release Convict of Dalit IAS Krishnaiah’s Murder

The Central IAS Association has expressed deep disappointment and concern over the Bihar government’s decision to release mafia-turned-politician, the convict responsible for the murder of Dalit IAS G Krishnaiah, a former District Magistrate of Gopalganj, through a change in classification rules of prisoners.

In a strongly worded statement, the Central IAS Association has condemned the Bihar government’s decision to release the convict G Krishnaiah’s murder, stating that it is a serious blow to justice and accountability. The Association has emphasized that a convict charged with the murder of a public servant on duty cannot be re-classified to a less heinous category and then released on this basis. The amendment of existing classification rules by Bihar Government leading to the release of the convicted killer of a public servant on duty is tantamount to denial of justice and will lead to impunity, erosion in morale of public servants, undermines public order, and makes a mockery of administration of justice.

G Krishnaiah, a Telangana-born Scheduled Caste IAS official who was the district magistrate of Gopalganj at the time, was attacked and shot dead by a mob in 1994 while his vehicle was passing through Bihar’s Muzaffarpur district. Gangster-turned-politician Anand Mohan and 17 others were convicted in 2007 for the murder of the Dalit IAS officer and sentenced to life imprisonment.

The Central IAS Association’s statement highlights: The Central IAS Association expresses its deep dismay at the decision of the State Government of Bihar to release the convicts of the brutal killing of Late Shri G Krishnaiah, IAS, former District Magistrate of Gopalganj, by a change in classification rules of prisoners…We strongly request the State Govt. of Bihar to reconsider its decision at the earliest.
