Bombay HC notice to Pankaja Munde in chikki scam

July 16, 2015 18:03

The Bombay high court on Thursday directed a notice to be issued to State Women and Child Development minister Pankaja Munde on a public interest litigation seeking action against her in the chikki scam.

The PIL filed by Sandeep Ahire wants the loss to the public exchequer to be personally recovered from her. Among the other reliefs, Ahire has also sought probe by a high-level inquiry committee headed by a retired HC judge "to look into the procurements made by the government " to the tune of Rs 206 crore. He has also urged anti-corruption bureau inquiry.
