Rajasthan ACB ne IAS Shikhar Agrawal aur IPS Prashakha Mathur par shikhanja kasa hai. Goyal Fashions ke saath property deals mein ghotala hone ka shaq hai, jo investors ke liye ek bahut bada governance red flag hai.
Rajasthan ki Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) ne ek bade mamle ki jaanch shuru kar di hai. IAS officer Shikhar Agrawal aur unki wife IPS Prashakha Mathur par ilzaam hai ki unhone Goyal Fashions Private Limited ke saath milkar kuch gadbad deals ki hain. Sarkar ne Prevention of Corruption Act ke under probe ko green flag de diya hai.
Kya hai pura mamla?
Investigators ke mutabik, is couple ne 40 villas aur cottages kharide hain jinki total value lagbhag ₹6.16 Crore hai. Ye deals September 2023 se March 2026 ke beech hui. Hairani ki baat ye hai ki ye properties market rate se kaafi sasti li gayi hain, jo ki ek bada sawal khada karta hai.
Sirf itna hi nahi, property kharidne ke baad unhone inhi villas ko wapas company ko lease par de diya. Isse unhe har saal ₹1.8 Crore ki rental income mil rahi hai. ACB ko shak hai ki ye ek 'quid pro quo' deal ho sakti hai. March 2026 mein jis din unhone 20 villas register karaye, usi din state government ne company ko ek bada financial package diya tha. Ab ACB check kar rahi hai ki kya ye approvals aur permits in deals ke badle mein diye gaye the.
Investors ke liye seekh (Investor Caution)
Ye sirf ek case nahi, balki hum sab ke liye ek badi warning hai. Jab bhi koi company government officials ya kisi influence wale person ke saath 'related-party transactions' karti hai, toh samajh jao ki daal mein kuch kala hai. Agar kisi company ki growth sirf shortcuts ya political access se ho rahi ho, toh long-term mein wahan paisa lagana risky ho sakta hai. Governance fail hone par stock mein toh crash aata hi hai, saath mein regulator ka danda bhi chalta hai.
