Chandigarh, August 28
After a probe report questioned the role of Social Justice, Empowerment and Minorities Minister Sadhu Singh Dharamsot in shielding those involved in the Rs 55.71-crore scholarship scam, the state government is learnt to have directed the Chief Secretary to probe the matter.
The minister has termed the findings of the report absurd and unfounded. Meanwhile, Congress Rajya Sabha MP Partap Bajwa said he would write to Sonia Gandhi, apprising her of the situation. He sought Dharamsot’s resignation. — TNS
