On the second floor of the Ministry, the bribe accused has been caught. Further investigation into this case has been initiated. The FDA department in the Ministry comes under the jurisdiction of NCP leader and Minister Narhari Zhirwal. This entire incident has caused a stir. In this context, Congress State President Harshwardhan Sapkal has reacted.
Harshvardhan Sapkal said, 'It is shocking to learn that the ACB has set a trap and apprehended a corrupt official in the office of a cabinet minister in the ministry. It has once again become clear that open bribery and commission-taking are ongoing in the ministry during the tenure of the mega-corrupt grand alliance government. A situation has arisen where public work is not done without money, which is a very serious matter. The Chief Minister should take note of the matter, inform the public, and remove the corrupt minister from the position.' This is what Congress State President Harshvardhan Sapkal has said.
