Prayagraj, Dec. 30 -- Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya reprimanded Prayagraj District Magistrate Manish Kumar Verma on Tuesday over a viral video.

Advising the DM, Maurya said, "Don''t get involved with Santosh Das alias Satua Baba." When the Deputy CM said this to the DM, those present burst into laughter.

A video of DM Manish Kumar Verma making 'rotis' (flatbreads) on a stove at the camp of Santosh Das alias Satua Baba in Khak Chowk had gone viral last Wednesday.

The Deputy CM, who was on a surprise inspection of the Magh Mela preparations, had to pull up the DM.
