Nagpur MP and RLP leader Hanuman Beniwal has written to PM Modi seeking a central inquiry into the purchase of a villa and cottage by IAS officer Shikhar Agrawal and his IPS wife.
A controversy has erupted in Rajasthan regarding the purchase of a villa and cottage by senior IAS officer Shikhar Agrawal and his wife, IPS officer Prashakha Mathur. The matter has gained significant political traction, prompting a formal demand for a high-level investigation.
Hanuman Beniwal, the Member of Parliament from Nagaur and the Supreme Leader of the Rashtriya Lok Party (RLP), has written a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In his correspondence, Beniwal has requested the central government to initiate a thorough inquiry into the transaction involving the senior officers' family.
The political move highlights the scrutiny surrounding the financial dealings of top-ranking bureaucrats in the state. By taking the issue to the Prime Minister's office, the opposition leader aims to ensure that the matter is examined by a central body rather than local authorities, citing the need for transparency in such high-profile real estate acquisitions.
The development underscores the ongoing sensitivity around the conduct of senior civil servants in Rajasthan, where such issues often become focal points for political debate.
