Indore: Mustache allowance is given to the police in many places. Its purpose is to make the policeman appear overpowered. Sometimes policemen are also honoured for a moustache. But a case has come to light from Madhya Pradesh, in which the constable was suspended for not cutting his moustache. According to media reports, the constable refused to cut his moustache as a matter of Rajput self-respect and said that he accepted the suspension.

However, some media reports have also stated that the policeman has also been reinstated after a dispute in this regard. But, the restoration of the policeman has not been officially confirmed. The name of the Madhya Pradesh policeman suspended due to moustache is Rakesh Rana. A video of him is also going viral on social media after the suspension. In this, he is seen admitting suspension and not cutting his moustache. In the video, sepoy Rakesh Rana says, 'Sir said, cut the moustache. I believe I won't cut the moustache because I come from a Rajput family. It is self-contained. It's nice to put a moustache in the police department as well. Several IPS officers in the police department also keep moustaches. The objection raised against me is incomprehensible. Why was I the one who was interrupted on the moustache? I accept my suspension.'
Rakesh Rana was posted in Bhopal Co-operative Fraud and Public Service Guarantee Wing. He was working as a driver of the Special DG. According to officials in the department, Rana's face looked ugly in the moustache. Because of this, he was asked several times to cut his moustaches, but he ignored them. He was finally suspended on January 7 (Friday).
