Lokayukta Raids MP Power Engineer's Properties
The Lokayukta, which is like a watchdog for the government, raided the properties of a high-ranking engineer named Shivram Semil in Madhya Pradesh.
They found that he had assets worth ₹7.16 crore, which is much more than his official income of ₹2 crore.
This means his assets are 258% more than what he should have earned.
The raids happened in several places like Indore, Dhar, Pithampur, and Morena.
The engineer had luxury homes, transformer factories, and other valuable items.
The government thinks this is not right and has registered a case against him for corruption.
Lokayukta raided nine properties of Shivram Semil, a Superintending Engineer in Madhya Pradesh.
Assets worth ₹7.16 crore were found, 258% more than his official income of ₹2 crore.
Properties included luxury homes, transformer factories, and vehicles.
The engineer's son and daughter-in-law were involved in running some of the companies.
