JAMMU, March 24: The Jammu and Kashmir government has recommended a CBI probe into the allegations levelled by former Governor Satya Pal Malik that he was offered a bribe of Rs 300 crore.
On October 17, 2021, Malik, who is now the Governor of Meghalaya, had said at a function in Rajasthan: “Two files had come for my consideration. One of the secretaries told me that if I approve these, I can get Rs 150 crore each. I turned down the offer saying that I had brought five ‘kurta pyjamas’ to Kashmir and will just go back with them.”
Malik had alleged that he was offered Rs 300 crore in return for clearing the files of two big industrial houses. However, he refused to accept the money and cancelled the deals. (IANS)
