Chandigarh, May 22 -- Haryana chief minister Nayab Singh Saini on Thursday directed officials to take action against a sub-divisional officer (SDO) who reportedly installed electricity poles and a transformer in the middle of a farm pathway in Bakali village of Ladwa constituency in Kurukshetra district.
