Abohar, September 3
The state government has directed the Abohar Municipal Corporation to fix financial responsibility of three former executive officers in “Nai Sadak commercial plot auction scam”. The letter marked as “urgent and date bound” gives the MC a seven-day time. The Retired Municipal Employees Welfare Association had last month informed the department that former executive officers—Bhushan Singh Rana, Jasbir Singh Dhaliwal and Bhushan Aggarwal— were allegedly responsible for causing a loss of Rs 71.57 lakh, Rs 3.95 lakh and Rs 1.07 lakh, respectively in the scam, which had surfaced in 2010.
Rana had allegedly slashed rate of interest for delayed payments of instalments in sale of commercial plots from 18 to 1 per cent. — OC
