ED went to High Court with complaint of Jharkhand government, said – did not take action against guilty officers

In major cases of money laundering in Jharkhand, ED had sent a letter to the state government for action after investigation. Under Section 66(2) of PMLA, the state government did not take any action in these cases even after a period of two years and more. In such a situation, ED has now filed a petition in the High Court in this matter.

Accusation of not taking action against guilty officers

In the petition, ED has demanded action by registering an FIR from CBI in these cases. ED had sent 13 separate letters to the state government to take action against the guilty government officials and register FIR in the Ranchi land scam, MNREGA case, coal allocation scam, liquor and sand scam.

Since the state government did not take action in this case, ED has made the state government, Chief Secretary, DGP and DG ACB a party in this case. The cases in which ED had sought action include MNREGA scam, illegal mining case, money laundering in Rural Development Department, tampering of government documents in land scam, tender scam, coal allocation scam. Now the further process will be started only after the order of the High Court.
