BAREILLY: After being promoted as Moradabad divisional commissioner earlier this week, outgoing Rampur district magistrate Aunjaneya Kumar Singh was accorded a farewell like a wedding procession. Singh was made to sit on a horse-driven buggy like a groom and a musical band followed him as he moved around the town on Friday.
The district administration had arranged Singh’s farewell at Vikas Bhavan and on the collectorate compound, and they were joined by the police department and officials from various other government departments.

Thanking district administration colleagues and officials for the send-off, Singh said that “teamwork is the key to success”. “My team and I ensured the development and betterment of Rampur district. I hope the effort in this direction will continue in the future, too.”
Kumar had hit headlines for tightening noose around Samajwadi Party MP Azam Khan, his family and aides — accused in several cases of land grabbing, forgery, etc — during his tenure as Rampur DM for over two years from February 2019 to March 2021.
Ravindra Kumar Mandari replaced Aunjaneya Kumar as the Rampur DM on March 6.
