PHC medical officer held while taking bribe in Bihars Vaishali district
Digital Desk | Patna, Oct 9 (IANS) A team from the Vigilance Investigation Bureau (VIB), Bihar, on Friday arrested Dr Kamini Prasad, Medical Officer-in-Charge of Patedhi Belsar Primary Health Centre (PHC) in Vaishali district, while she was allegedly accepting a bribe in exchange for releasing pending incentive payments. The officer is accused of demanding a 10% commission to clear the outstanding payments. The vigilance team also took the PHCs Head Assistant, Dhirendra Kumar and Data Operator, Himanshu Kumar, into custody for questioning. The operation triggered a stir within the Health Department. Investigators are examining the allegations and the possible roles of other staff members. According to an official, the action followed a complaint by Jaipal Singh, a Community Health Officer (CHO) posted at the Ayushman Arogya Mandir in Mishrauliya-Afzalpur under the Patedhi Belsar block. Singh alleged that his incentive payments had remained pending for more than three months and that Dr Prasad was demanding a 10% commission to release the amount. He subsequently approached the Vigilance Investigation Bureau. After receiving the complaint, the bureau reportedly verified the allegations and planned an operation. Vigilance personnel in plain clothes were deployed around the PHC on Friday morning. According to the available account, Singh handed over the money provided by the vigilance team to Dr Prasad in her office. The team then intervened and arrested her on the spot. The investigators subsequently took Head Assistant Dhirendra Kumar and Data Operator Himanshu Kumar into custody for questioning to establish whether they had any role in the alleged bribery case. The operation caused commotion on the PHC premises as the vigilance team carried out the arrests. The exact amount allegedly recovered during the operation has not yet been confirmed. The Vigilance Investigation Bureau is continuing its investigation and questioning those taken into custody. Further details, including the findings of the investigation and the alleged roles of the other employees, are expected to emerge as the case progresses. The allegations against the individuals remain subject to the ongoing investigation and legal proceedings.

Bihar: SVU raids Gopalganj ADMs properties; assets worth over Rs 3.12 crore detected
Digital Desk | Patna, Oct 9 (IANS) The Special Vigilance Unit (SVU) on Friday conducted searches at four locations across Patna, Rohtas and Gopalganj linked to Rajeshwari Pandey, Additional District Magistrate (ADM), Gopalganj, in connection with an alleged disproportionate assets case. During the searches, investigators recovered documents relating to the purchase of around a dozen plots of land and flats in Patna, Varanasi, Sasaram and other parts of Rohtas district. The properties, registered in the names of Pandey, his wife and his son, are valued at approximately Rs 1.32 crore. One of the properties searched was a flat at Bhavani City Apartment near RPS School under the jurisdiction of Rupaspur police station in Patna. According to the SVU, investigators identified 35 bank accounts maintained with the State Bank of India (SBI), Punjab National Bank (PNB), HDFC Bank and Central Bank of India. The accounts reportedly contain deposits totalling Rs 1,49,17,400 (Rs 1.49 crore). A paragraph mentioning private companies has been removed as per instructions. Documents relating to fixed deposits worth Rs 8.5 lakh were also recovered. A search of the ADM's residence yielded Rs 1.85 lakh in cash and gold and silver jewellery valued at approximately Rs 32 lakh, officials said. The SVU's preliminary findings indicate that Pandey's movable and immovable assets exceed Rs 3.12 crore. Of this amount, assets worth approximately Rs 2.5 crore have been assessed as disproportionate to his known sources of income, allegedly exceeding his legitimate earnings by 135 per cent. Searches continued until late Friday evening at Pandey's ancestral village of Thorsan in the Kargahar block of Rohtas district. Investigators expect the valuation of the assets under scrutiny to increase as the search and verification process continues. Pandey joined government service in 2010. An FIR has been registered against him in connection with the alleged disproportionate assets. Confirming the operation, SVU Additional Director General of Police Sudhanshu Kumar said that, following the registration of an FIR regarding disproportionate assets, raids were conducted at four locations linked to the Gopalganj ADM. He said assets exceeding known sources of income by around Rs 2.5 crore had been detected and that searches were continuing at the officer's ancestral village. The SVU is continuing to examine the documents and financial records recovered during the searches. The allegations and valuation of the assets remain subject to further investigation.

Digital Desk | Patna, Oct 9 (IANS) Candidates of the Bihar Police driver recruitment drive intensified their protest in Patna on Friday, demanding that more than 1,200 posts earmarked for women, which they claim have remained vacant, be filled with eligible male candidates from the respective categories. The candidates had planned to march towards the Chief Ministers residence to press their demands. However, police personnel intervened before the proposed march could begin. Barricades were erected at Gate No. 10, and a large number of security personnel were deployed inside Gandhi Maidan and the surrounding areas. The protesters alleged they had obtained permission to hold a peaceful sit-in, organise a Kalash Yatra and take out a march, but the administration prevented them from proceeding with their planned programme. According to the candidates, the protest was scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. with a sit-in at Gandhi Maidan, followed by a Kalash Yatra and a march from Gate No. 10 to Dakbungalow Crossing. The candidates said more than 1,200 posts reserved for women in the driver recruitment process had remained vacant. They urged the authorities to consider filling these vacancies with eligible male candidates from the respective categories in accordance with the applicable recruitment rules. They say that this would prevent the posts from remaining unfilled and provide employment opportunities to other qualified applicants. Radhe Shyam Kumar, one of the protesting candidates, said they had been staging a sit-in at Gardanibagh for several days. He described the difficulties of continuing the agitation, adding that his family had questioned why he was spending time protesting instead of studying. He maintained that candidates needed to raise their voices to secure their rights. He reiterated the demand that posts remaining vacant after the allocation of seats to female candidates should be considered eligible for male applicants. He also cited the recruitment process for Sub-Inspectors, arguing that a similar provision should be considered for the driver recruitment drive. Despite the police barricades and the deployment of security personnel, candidates continued to gather near Gate No. 10 of Gandhi Maidan. The protesters maintained that they intended to put forward their demands peacefully.

Bihar: ED files charge sheet against six accused into Rs 1.29 crore PNB fraud
Digital Desk | Patna, Oct 8 (IANS) The Enforcement Directorate's (ED) Patna Zonal Office has filed a charge sheet before the Special PMLA Court in Patna against six individuals in connection with an alleged money laundering case linked to a bank fraud involving the Punjab National Bank (PNB) in Muzaffarpur. The charge sheet was filed on September 29, 2026, seeking the conviction of Md. Zafar Eqbal, Nitesh Kumar Singh, Santosh Anand, Rajesh Kumar, Manjay Kumar Singh and Kundan Kumar. According to the ED, the investigation was initiated on the basis of two FIRs registered by the Bihar Police under various provisions of the Indian Penal Code, 1860, relating to allegations of cheating and forgery. The agency alleged that Zafar Eqbal and his aides siphoned off around Rs 1.29 crore from the bank accounts of victims with the alleged assistance of Nitesh Kumar Singh, an official of Punjab National Bank. The ED alleged that the accused used SIM-swapping to facilitate the fraudulent transactions. According to the agency, the method prevented account holders from receiving transaction alerts on their registered mobile numbers, allowing the unauthorised transfers to go undetected. The ED had earlier conducted search operations at four locations linked to the accused on December 11, 2025. According to the agency, the searches led to the identification and freezing of proceeds of crime amounting to around Rs 83 lakh held in four bank accounts. The ED's investigation allegedly found that funds were siphoned from savings accounts maintained at the PNB branch in Muzaffarpur and transferred to mule accounts located in different cities. According to the ED, the allegedly diverted funds were subsequently routed back to the personal bank accounts of Zafar Eqbal and his proprietorship firm. The agency alleged that the funds were transferred through hawala channels as well as through cash deposits made via ATMs at different locations. The money was subsequently allegedly distributed among the accused persons. The ED said the charge sheet has been filed after an investigation into the alleged money laundering activities. Further investigation into the case is underway.
Bihar: ED files prosecution complaint against ex-SBI officer in Rs 7.96 crore laundering case
Digital Desk | Patna, Oct 8 (IANS) The Directorate of Enforcement (ED), Patna Zonal Office, has filed a prosecution complaint before the Special Court (PMLA), Patna, against Priti Singh, a former Field Officer at the State Bank of India (SBI)'s Manpur branch in Gaya, in connection with an alleged Rs 7.96 crore money laundering case involving fraudulent overdraft facilities and manipulation of bank records. The complaint was filed on September 30, 2026, under Sections 44 and 45 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002. The ED has sought the prosecution and conviction of Singh for the alleged offence of money laundering under Section 3, punishable under Section 4 of the Act. According to the ED, the investigation was initiated on the basis of an FIR registered by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and a subsequent chargesheet, numbered 15/2022, filed on December 30, 2022, against Singh. The agency alleged that, while serving as a Field Officer at SBI's Manpur branch, Singh fraudulently sanctioned and operated 68 overdraft (OD) accounts against term deposits, including TDRs and STDRs. The ED alleged that the accounts were opened in Singh's name and in the names of her relatives through the manipulation of bank records. The agency further alleged that liens on fixed deposits were removed and that the same securities were reused to obtain multiple overdraft facilities. According to the ED, the alleged transactions resulted in a wrongful loss of approximately Rs 7.96 crore. The ED said its investigation established that proceeds of crime amounting to Rs 7,96,00,916 (Rs 7.96 crore), allegedly generated through the scheduled offences, were used by Singh for personal and family expenses. The agency further alleged that part of the funds was used to create additional fixed deposits, which were subsequently used to obtain further overdraft or loan facilities. According to the ED, the bank later recovered part of the amount from fixed deposits pledged against the overdraft accounts. In contrast, the remaining amount was repaid by Singh with financial assistance from family members and relatives. The agency said the subsequent repayment did not alter its finding that the alleged proceeds of crime had been obtained, possessed and utilised by the accused before being repaid. The ED said its investigation in the case had been completed and the prosecution complaint had been filed before the Special Court (PMLA), Patna. The allegations contained in the prosecution complaint will be subject to judicial consideration and proceedings before the competent court.

2nd T20: 'Now Much More Mature', Says Kotak As He Backs Kishan To Deliver On Home Turf In Ranchi
T20 World Cup: Having worked closely with Ishan Kishan for a long period, India batting coach Sitanshu Kotak appreciated the local lad's growth as a much more mature and tactical match-winner ahead of India's second T20I against West Indies, set to happen at the JSCA Ground in Ranchi on Friday. Originally from Patna, Kishan plays domestic cricket for Jharkhand and is having a dream run in the shortest format leading the run-making charts by amassing 1042 runs in 30 innings and becoming a T20 World Cup winner. As a batting coach, whichever ground Ishan plays in, he considers it his home ground. Actually, when he came back after the World Cup, he has been doing really well for the Indian team in any situation. When he was young, I saw him when I worked in the IPL, where he was in the Gujarat Lions setup. But even then, he used to play aggressively. If anything, I would say that he is much more mature now. So, he plays according to the needs of the team and the situation of the team, and he has been doing really well. So, we just hope that he does well on his home ground, Kotak said in the pre-match press conference. Reiterating India's approach of an unrelenting and high-intensity version of playing the game, Kotak said that the pitch conditions in Ranchi will not impact the team's attacking approach. I think the way we are approaching with the fearless and team-first approach - that's the same way we'll go. No matter, it might be a different wicket also, but in T20s generally we get a good wicket. So, that'll be the same thing; the way we want to approach the T20s, we'll continue. I think it's a good batting wicket. So, it should be a high-scoring pitch. The team has not decided yet. So, I don't know. Chances are for everyone in 15 to be in the 11, he added. On managing the workload and rotation of stars such as Jasprit Bumrah, who has been rested from the series, Kotak said that while it does impact results, overall the team's strong bench strength helps to ensure that a balanced squad is maintained at all times to prepare for multiple international events. Obviously, because, see, some games we are not playing, and Bumrah has been given a rest. In some games, some other senior players are also not playing. So, obviously any team in the world will require bench strength, and somewhere and somewhere you have to give them chances. So, sometimes results do suffer, but normally I think we have enough strong bench strength that our results also don't suffer as much, he added. Commenting on the issues raised regarding young pace bowler Mayank Yadav's performance in the first game, where his batting returns were expensive, Kotak felt he will bounce back strongly. See, Mayank also played here after playing in Zimbabwe. Any bowler will feel that it will take certain matches to get rhythm. Obviously, any bowler or bowling coach and team management will think about where they gave runs or where the runs go or in which particular bowls did the runs go and then think of how they can cut off, whether it is length or pace or change of pace. So, that is a non-stop work that is going on, he said. Expanding on the issue of balancing the need for victories with nurturing young talent, Kotak praised the healthy pool of competitive players available for selection across multiple squads. To tell you the truth, when you test players and if you win, then it continues. If you lose, there is a very thin line between keeping that balance. But obviously, we try to do that because of the promising players that we have, the way the BCCI and CoE run, our bench strength; if two or three of our teams go, it looks strong. Expanding on the issue of balancing the need for victories with nurturing young talent, Kotak praised the healthy pool of competitive players available for selection across multiple squads.

Bihar: ED attaches properties worth Rs 1.09 crore in rice mill money laundering case
Digital Desk | Patna, Oct 8 (IANS) The Directorate of Enforcement (ED), Patna Zonal Office, has provisionally attached immovable properties worth Rs 1,09,26,808 (Rs 1.09 crore) in Sheikhpura district of Bihar in connection with a money laundering investigation involving M/s Arena Food and Agro Industries Private Limited. The properties were attached on October 7 under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002. According to the ED, the properties belong to the company and individuals linked to it, including its director Shreekrishan Kumar, Shobha Kumari, wife of Radhey Sharma, and Kanhaiya Kumar and Kuber Kashyap, both sons of Radhey Sharma. The ED investigation was initiated on the basis of an FIR registered against Radhey Sharma, director of M/s Arena Agro Industries Pvt. Ltd., under various provisions of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). According to the FIR and information received from the predicate agency, the company procured 63,092.45 quintals of paddy from the Bihar State Food Corporation (BSFC) during 2012-13. Under the agreement, the company was required to supply Custom Milled Rice (CMR) equivalent to 67 per cent of the paddy procured, amounting to 42,271.94 quintals, by December 30, 2013. The ED, in its official statement, alleged that the company supplied only 19,170 quintals of CMR, leaving a shortfall of 23,101.94 quintals. According to the agency, the alleged shortfall resulted in a loss of Rs 5,00,28,637.19 (Rs 5.00 crore) to the government exchequer, calculated at Rs 2,165.56 per quintal. The agency further stated that Rs 1.21 crore was subsequently paid by M/s Arena Food and Agro Industries Pvt. Ltd. to the BSFC, leaving an outstanding amount of approximately Rs 3.79 crore. The ED has treated the alleged outstanding amount as proceeds of crime in the case. According to the ED, its investigation found that the CMR was allegedly sold in the open market and that the corresponding amount was not returned to the Bihar government despite the registration of the FIR and reminders issued by the BSFC. The agency alleged that the proceeds generated through the criminal activity were used in the business and subsequently dissipated. The investigation also allegedly found that funds from the company's bank accounts were transferred to accounts belonging to its directors, family members of the principal accused, and family-linked entities associated with his sons. Based on these findings, the ED provisionally attached immovable properties valued at Rs 1,09,26,808 (Rs 1.09 crore) belonging to the company and the individuals linked to it. The agency said further investigation into the case is underway.

Tejashwi Yadav attacks CEC Gyanesh Kumar after Mahagathbandhan march in Patna
Digital Desk | Patna, Oct 8 (IANS) Leader of Opposition in the Bihar assembly Tejashwi Yadav launched a sharp attack on Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar after the Mahagathbandhans march to Lok Bhawan in Patna on Thursday, alleging that the Election Commissions actions had undermined voters rights and it was involved in stealing votes. After meeting the Governor along with other Mahagathbandhan leaders, Tejashwi accused Kumar of conspiring against democracy and used strong terms to criticise the Chief Election Commissioner. He alleged that the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls had adversely affected genuine voters and demanded accountability from the Election Commission. Tejashwi also alleged that the protesters were subjected to police pressure despite having an appointment to meet the Governor. He said the opposition would not be deterred by police action or the possibility of detention and would continue its agitation over what it described as a conspiracy against voters. Tejashwi said Bihar had a historic association with democratic and political movements and asserted that attempts to undermine democratic institutions would not be tolerated. He also linked the Bihar protest to the wider opposition campaign against the Election Commission, saying he had spoken with Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and had been invited to participate in a protest in Delhi. He said Mahagathbandhan leaders would also seek to meet the President as part of their ongoing campaign. Tejashwi further said his political objective extended beyond the immediate issue concerning the CEC, accusing the BJP-led government of failing to protect democratic institutions. These were political statements made by the RJD leader and were not independently established facts. VIP chief Mukesh Sahani said the opposition had a responsibility to raise issues concerning the people and protect constitutional values. It is our duty to be in the opposition, Sahani said, adding that the Mahagathbandhan would continue raising issues it believed affected democracy and the rights of citizens. The protest followed the Mahagathbandhans two-day agitation against the SIR exercise and the functioning of the Election Commission. The alliance has alleged irregularities in the electoral roll revision and demanded action against the CEC. The Election Commission and the BJP have rejected the oppositions allegations of political bias. Patna SDPO (Secretariat) Annu Kumari said the delegation had been permitted to meet the Governor and had returned after the meeting, while other protesters were stopped behind the barricades. The march had triggered a heightened security arrangement in Patna, with barricades placed at several points along the route. Police and administrative officials were deployed to regulate the movement of protesters and maintain traffic and public order. The protest also led to a confrontation involving RJD workers and the vehicle of the BJP state president, Sanjay Saraogi, near the Lok Bhawan gate. According to the account provided, RJD workers surrounded the vehicle as it passed the area and raised slogans accusing the BJP of electoral wrongdoing and vote chori. The incident added to the political tension following the Mahagathbandhans march. The opposition has said its agitation over the SIR exercise and its concerns about the Election Commission will continue through further protests.
