PIL filed against Bihar minister

 

Patna, (Bihar Times): A Public Interest Litigation was filed in the Mumbai high court against Bihar’s excise minister, Jamshed Ashraf.

According to the petitioner, Atul Bhagat, a Maharashtra Navnirman Sena activist, he submitted false documents to procure arms licence. The petition said that the Navi Mumbai Police gave him the licence of revolver some years back. The police have been asked to submit the reply within four weeks.

The minister on the other hand told media that he is falsely being implicated by MNS activist simply becaue he is a Bihari. “I had been living in Mumbai for 30 years before I returned to Bihar to contest assembly election. I have a business there and my family still lives in Mumbai. I took the licence when I used to live there and surrendered it before returning to Bihar, Jamshed Ashraf said.
