Pranjal Yadav, the man who rattled Narendra Modi

A B.Tech from IIT Roorkee, Yadav earned people's appreciation for removing encroachments and widening roads.

 He is believed to be working on a new master plan for Varanasi. During floods last year, Yadav reportedly drew attention for working long hours.

After the controversy over the Narendra Modi events, however, the officer seems to have gained admirers and critics in equal measure, also on social media.
