Bring guilty to book
- The BSF said the amount recovered should be deposited in the Central Government treasury
- It also demanded stern action against erring officials involved in the case
In a letter to the Chief Secretary, the BSF has sought a high-level probe into the entire scam and said the amount recovered should be deposited in the Central Government treasury, besides stern action should be taken against erring officials involved in the case.
Earlier, the BSF had lodged a complaint with the then Deputy Commissioner Chander Gaind, who following an enquiry conducted by the ADC ( General), had ordered dismissal of Kanoongo Balkar Singh. As per information, Balkar had allegedly transferred 23 kanal land to his brother-in-law and remaining 23 kanals to Amritvir Singh.
The ADC had also indicted other senior administrative and revenue officials as well who have seemingly gone scot-free.
