Plea questioning minister’s degree filed in Gujarat HC

Claiming that the MBA degree of Gujarat Minister of state Shankarbhai Chaudhary was fake, a local Congress leader from his home constituency Radhanpur in North Gujarat today filed a complaint petition in the Gujarat high court demanding an inquiry in to it.

Petitioner Farsu Goklani in his complaint has claimed that the MBA degree of the minister of state for Health and Family welfare, Road and Transport and Urban Housing Departments, was fake.

‘The 2012 affidavit of Chaudhuri given along with his nomination papers as BJP candidate from Radhanpur seat claimed that he has taken an MBA degree from National Institute of Management (NIM), Mumbai. But it can’t be a genuine one as he has said that he passed his 10+2 in 2011. My contention is that how can any one get a genuine MBA degree within a year of passing the intermediate examination. His claim was also disputed earlier in Vadodara,’ he said.

The matter is likely to come up for hearing tomorrow.

The four term MLA from Radhanpur, Mr. Chaudhary contested his first ever election of the Legislative Assembly against the then Chief Minister Shri Shankarsinh Vaghela in 1997 and defeated him. He is constantly wining from the seat ever since.
