ACB Gujarat Nabs Mamlatdar Office Staffers in Bribe Case

Vijayanagar, Sabarkantha: In a successful operation conducted by the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB), two government staffers were caught red-handed accepting a bribe at the Jan Seva Kendra in Vijayanagar.

The accused have been identified as Dharmendrabhai Amrajibhai Solanki, an e-Stamping computer operator (outsourced) at the Jan Seva Kendra, and Mahavir Arjunbhai Asari, a Class 3 revenue talati (e-Dhara center) at the Mamlatdar’s office, Vijayanagar.

A vigilant citizen approached the ACB with a complaint alleging that the two staffers had demanded a bribe of Rs. 1500 to facilitate the registration of a property inheritance in the name of a family member. Despite paying the initial demanded amount, the staffers continued to extort money, leading the complainant to report the matter to the ACB.

In a meticulously planned operation, the ACB laid a trap and caught the accused red-handed while accepting the bribe. Both acacused have been arrested and are being interrogated further. DeshGujarat
