MCG Engineer Arrested for Bribery Related to Illegal Construction
Imagine someone building a house without permission.
A city worker, Sandeep Kumar, was supposed to stop them.
But instead of doing his job, he asked for money, like a bribe!
He already took some money before, and was caught taking more.
The city has rules to stop this, like giving warnings and sealing buildings.
If people break these rules, the city can take action.
This case shows that some city workers are not following the rules, and are being arrested for taking bribes.
A junior engineer from MCG was arrested by ACB for accepting a bribe.
The bribe of Rs 1 lakh was solicited to overlook unauthorized construction in Daultabad.
The accused had previously accepted Rs 50,000 for the same purpose.
MCG officials have enforcement teams to address illegal constructions.
MCG had decided to file FIRs against those who tamper with seals on unauthorized constructions.
