Land-for-Jobs-Case: Delhi Court Defers Order on Summoning Lalu Yadav and Tejashwi Yadav
Delhi’s Rouse Avenue Court has adjourned its order on whether to take cognisance of a supplementary charge sheet filed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) against former Railway Minister Lalu Prasad, his son Tejashwi Yadav, and eight others in the alleged land-for-job scam.
Special Judge Vishal Gogne deferred the order to September 7, stating that further clarifications were needed.
The supplementary charge sheet, submitted on August 6, is part of the ED’s prosecution complaint, which is equivalent to a charge sheet. The ED’s investigation stems from a First Information Report (FIR) lodged by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
The case relates to Group-D appointments in the West Central Zone of the railways, based in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, during Lalu Yadav’s tenure as railway minister from 2004 to 2009. The ED alleges that these appointments were made in exchange for land parcels that were gifted or transferred by the recruits to the RJD leader’s family or associates.
