The Karnataka government has issued a show-cause notice to IAS officer Mohammad Mohsin (IAS:1996:KN) over his recent tweet about coronavirus-cured Tablighi Jamaat members donating plasma for the treatment of other patients. The officer was in the news last year as well after Election Commission suspended him for trying to inspect PM’s helicopter during his visit to Odisha in April where he was deployed as a poll observer. Mohsin tweeted: “More than 300 Tablighi Heroes are donating their plasma to serve the country in New Delhi only. What about? #Godi Media? They will not show the works of humanity done by these heroes.” Mohsin is currently serving as a Secretary in the Backward Class Welfare Department. The state government said the show cause notice has been issued to the officer in connection with his recent tweet.
