ED Calls Lalu and son for questioning in job-for-land scam

 

Politics of revenge once again! The ED calls former Bihar Chief Minister Lalu Prasad Yadav on Wednesday right after the INDI Alliance meeting on Tuesday. Tejashwi Yadav, the current deputy chief minister of the state, has also been summoned.



ED has summoned Lalu Prasad on December 27 and Tejashwi Yadav on December 22 before that. ED summoned them once again for questioning in job for land scam case. After this, the opposition has raised allegations of revenge. Without being able to deal with their complaints politically, the BJP government at the center has again tried to suppress the voice of the opposition by using the agency.

Incidentally, Lalu Prasad was granted bail in the case filed against him in exchange for land in October. Lalu's wife and another former chief minister of Bihar Rabri Devi and their son Tejashwi Yadav were also granted bail by a Delhi court.

During Lalu's tenure as Railway Minister in the first UPA government (2004-09), there were allegations that many Bihar youths were appointed to 'Group D' posts in the railways in exchange for land. Lalu's wife and former Bihar Chief Minister Rabri and their two daughters Misa and Hema have been accused. On May 20 last year, the CBI conducted search operations at a total of 15 places in the country, including Patna, Delhi, to investigate the incident. After this, raids were conducted in the houses of several RJD leaders in August. On October 22 of last year, the CBI presented the charge sheet in the 'job instead of land' corruption case. Lalu, Rabri and their two daughters Misa Bharti and Hema Yadav are also named.

  The 'Citizenship Amendment Act' or 'CAA' may be implemented across the country before the Lok Sabha elections. Such is the claim of a source of the Ministry of Home Affairs. News agency PTI said so. It is to be noted that even after the seal of the President on the CAA at the end of 2019, the rules have not been made. So the law has not yet been implemented. But this time the law will be made soon. And only after that it can be implemented. Such is the demand of central sources. The Citizenship Amendment Act or CAA was enacted in 1955 to prevent illegal immigration. 64 years later the law was amended to change the definition of trespasser. Unlawful trespasser was defined in Section 2 of the 1955 Act. In the 2019 amendment, section 2 was amended to add 2(1)(b). In that section it is said that Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jains, Parsis and Christians from Bangladesh, Pakistan and Afghanistan shall not fall under the category of illegal immigrants.
