Officials of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Monday arrived at the residence of former Bihar Chief Minister Rabri Devi to question her in relation to land for jobs scams, which happened during Lalu Yadav’s tenure as the railway minister.
The case relates to supposed illegal appointments made in the railways in return for land given to former railway minister Lalu Prasad Yadav’s family when he was the minister of railways between 2004 and 2009.
On February 27, a Delhi court summoned former railway minister Lalu Prasad Yadav, his wife Rabri Devi and 14 others in connection with the alleged land-for-job scam.
In July 2022, the CBI arrested Bhola Yadav, who used to be the officer on special duty (OSD) to Lalu Prasad when he was the railway minister, in the case.
The charge sheet was filed on October 10 last year, for offences of criminal conspiracy and corruption against 16 accused persons.
The final report also named Prasad’s daughter Misa Bharti, former general manager of Central Railway Sowmya Raghavan, former CPO Railways Kamal Deep Mainrai, seven aspirants appointed as substitutes and four private individuals.
