Prashant Kishor Seeks Probe Into Tejashwi Yadav's Role In Bihar 'Dustbin Scam'

Prashant Kishor, founder of Jan Suraaj Party and Bankipur MLA, has demanded a probe into the alleged role of RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav in the 'dustbin scam' in Bihar.

Kishor claimed that the procurement of dustbins at inflated prices began when Tejashwi was the state's health minister in the former Mahagathbandhan government.

The alleged scam involved the purchase of dustbins priced between Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 for Rs 15,000 per piece. Kishor also sought an investigation into the role of a senior officer who was instrumental in the purchase of dustbins during the tenures of both Tejashwi and former health minister Mangal Pandey.

Bihar health minister Nishant Kumar has ordered a probe into the alleged corruption in the purchase of dustbins, drugs, and medical equipment. A committee headed by state health department's special secretary Thiyagarajan SM will conduct a thorough investigation into the allegations.

The allegations of corruption in the purchase of dustbins were first reported after an RTI revealed that 75-litre plastic dustbins, available in the market for around Rs 1,000-1,500, were purchased for Rs 15,490 each. Similarly, 45-litre bins were procured for about Rs 11,000 apiece.

The main opposition party has alleged that a Rs 617-crore 'dustbin scam' took place during the tenure of former health minister Mangal Pandey. The Bihar Medical Services and Infrastructure Corporation Ltd (BMSICL) procured the dustbins.

The inquiry committee has been directed to submit its report at the earliest. Kishor's demand for a probe into Tejashwi's role in the alleged scam has sparked a fresh controversy in Bihar's political landscape.

The 'dustbin scam' is the latest in a series of allegations of corruption against the Bihar government. The state has been witnessing a series of scandals, including the alleged involvement of ministers and MLAs in corrupt activities.

The probe into the 'dustbin scam' is expected to bring out the truth behind the allegations of corruption. The people of Bihar are eagerly waiting for the report of the inquiry committee to know the facts behind the alleged scam.

In the meantime, Kishor has targeted the Bihar government over the alleged scam, saying that the character of the head of the government is tainted and such incidents will continue to happen.

The 'dustbin scam' has become a major issue in Bihar's politics, with the opposition parties demanding a thorough probe into the allegations of corruption. The Bihar government has assured that it will take action against those found guilty in the probe.

The probe into the 'dustbin scam' is a significant development in Bihar's politics, and its outcome is expected to have a major impact on the state's political landscape.

The people of Bihar are hoping that the probe will bring out the truth behind the allegations of corruption and that those found guilty will be punished.

The 'dustbin scam' has highlighted the need for transparency and accountability in the government's functioning. The people of Bihar are demanding that the government take immediate action to prevent such scams in the future.

In conclusion, the 'dustbin scam' has become a major issue in Bihar's politics, and the probe into the allegations of corruption is expected to bring out the truth behind the scam.
