In the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) corruption case, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) filed a suit in a Delhi court on Saturday against Tejashwi Yadav, the deputy chief minister of Bihar. The Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader’s bail was granted in the case, and the CBI requested that it be revoked.

 

Tejashwi Yadav has been given notice of the CBI’s argument by Judge Geetanjali Goel, who has asked for his response.

Bail was granted in the case of the RJD leader and his mother Rabri Devi in 2018.

They were also charged with money laundering in a charge sheet submitted by the Enforcement Directorate in the case.

Lalu Prasad, his family, and other individuals were detained by the CBI in July 2017 for allegedly making ill-gotten gains by manipulating the conditions of the IRCTC hotels’ tender.

 

The CBI claims that Lalu Prasad engaged in misconduct by conspiring with the proprietors of the Chanakya and Sujata Hotel in Patna via IRCTC employees and the proprietors of a front company owned by Lalu Prasad and Rabri Devi.
