Stating that a revision application filed by Congress leader Hira Jotva and his son Digvijay was “not maintainable”, the Gujarat High Court on Thursday rejected the applications of all nine accused in an alleged Rs 7.3 crore MGNREGA scam case in Bharuch district who had challenged a sessions court order cancelling their bail. Nine accused, including Jotva, Digvijay, Nukani, and Sabhad, have been arrested in the case. The Jotvas’ application, the court order notes, “vehemently submitted” that the complainant in the FIR is the “same officer responsible for monitoring the 60:40 ratio (for material:labour) and in case of any violation, the office was having powers to withhold or cancel the allocation of grant. However, at the relevant point of time, no question was raised.”The court order noted the submission of the prosecutor of the state that it is a case of “huge loss and misappropriation of government money running into crores of rupees, and likely to spread over to many districts”. The report for the rest 332 parts of MGNREGA works is still awaited, “wherein, there is a possibility of high stake”.
