IPS Roopa lobbied for award she says she denied: Award Body
Namma Bengaluru Foundation has claimed IPS officer Roopa had lobbied hard for the award she claims to have denied, adding she made the statements after realising she wasn't winning. Roopa replied her denial was based on foundation's Managing Director Rajeev Chandrasekhar's election as BJP MP. She earlier said she wanted to maintain distance from quasi-political bodies as a government servant.
