CBI moves Delhi HC against Bihar DCM Tejashwi Yadav in IRCTC scam

New Delhi, Sept 17: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Saturday moved a Delhi court against Bihar deputy chief minister Tejashwi Yadav in the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) scam case. The CBI sought the cancellation of bail granted to the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader in the matter.

 

 

 

According to ANI inputs, Yadav was issued a notice by special judge Geetanjali Goel on the CBI's plea and his response was sought on the matter.

 

 

 

Yadav and his mother Rabri Devi were granted bail in the case in 2018. The scam relates to the IRCTC hotels maintenance contract case in which the CBI had charged 12 people and two companies. There were alleged irregularities in the allotment of contracts of two IRCTC hotels in Ranchi and Odisha’s Puri in 2006 to a private firm involving a bribe in the form of a three-acre commercial plot at a prime location in Bihar capital Patna.
