NRHM scam heading for quiet burial?

The CBI is preparing for a quiet burial of the NRHM scam in Uttar Pradesh.

The premier investigating agency has virtually called off investigations since the past two months and no further headway has been made in the cases related to NRHM scam and the murders of three medical officials.

IAS officer Pradeep Shukla, a key accused in the NRHM scam, got bail on Wednesday because the CBI did not file chargesheet within the stipulated 90 days period.

The CBI, which began probing the murders and the scam in July last year, on the direction of the high court, has not made any headway in the murders of three medical officers.

The investigating agency, according to sources, is preparing to tell the court that deputy CMO Y.S. Sachan who was found dead in mysterious circumstances inside Lucknow jail on June 22, 2011, had actually committed suicide.

The CBI is conveniently overlooking the fact that Dr Sachan’s body had eight deep cuts on his neck, arms/wrists and groin but no blood was found where his body was found hanging by a belt.

The question being asked is that is it possible for anyone to inflict so many deep cuts on himself and then hang himself with a belt? Moreover, the injury caused by the belt on his neck was found to be post-mortem, according to the autopsy report but the CBI has overlooked this point.

The CBI has also not made much progress in the murders of the other two CMOs — Dr Vinod Arya, who was shot dead on October 27, 2010, and Dr B.P. Singh, who was killed on April 2, 2011.

The CBI has already taken three extensions from the court and the next deadline is again round the corner. On the eve of the Assembly elections in UP, the CBI had shown great haste in the investigations and had lodged five FIRs on January 2, 2011.

On the basis of these FIRs, the CBI arrested former BSP minister Babu Singh Kushwaha and then BSP MLA Ram Prakash Jaiswal along with GM, Construction and Design, P.K. Jain.

I want to begin with a little story that was told to me by a leading executive at Aptech. He was exercising in a gym with a lot of younger people.

Shekhar Kapur’s Bandit Queen didn’t make the cut. Neither did Shaji Karun’s Piravi, which bagged 31 international awards.
