Maharashtra Govt on Tuesday suspended IPS officer Quaiser Khalid for allowing a giant hoarding -- whose collapse last month claimed 17 lives -- on giant hoarding land without the approval of the DGP office.

Officials cited administrative lapses and irregularities on his part in sanctioning the billboard.
The 140×120 ft hoarding in Mumbai's Ghatkopar area crashed onto a petrol pump on May 13 during gusty winds and unseasonal rains.
