Jaipur : Munesh Gurjar, the mayor of Jaipur Municipal Corporation Heritage in Rajasthan, has been facing corruption and bribery charges for the past several months. This Congress mayor has been facing problems since the time of the previous government, but Munesh’s problems have increased under the BJP government. The Bhajanlal government has given permission to run a case against Munesh. After the government gave prosecution approval, this Congress mayor has played a new trick. Munesh’s lawyer has filed a petition in the High Court challenging the FIR filed by the ACB. In the petition presented by Advocate Deepak Chauhan, it has been argued that Munesh Gurjar neither asked for bribe, nor was she caught taking bribe, nor was any recovery made. Then how was she made an accused.
Jaipur Mayor Munesh Gurjar: Amidst the government’s preparations to suspend him, Mayor Munesh Gurjar wished Modi Ji a happy birthday
This is how ACB’s FIR was challenged
Mayor Munesh Gurjar’s lawyer Advocate Deepak Chauhan has filed a petition in the Rajasthan High Court and raised questions on the FIR filed by the ACB. Advocate Chauhan argues that under the PC Act, demand and recovery are important grounds to prove corruption charges against any public servant. The ACB filed the FIR but could neither prove the demand nor show any recovery. In such a situation, a political conspiracy is visible in the allegations made against Mayor Munesh Gurjar. The petition challenging the FIR has been presented in the High Court. The date of hearing will be decided after the petition is accepted.
Corrupt XEN of Rajasthan took a bribe of ₹2.5 lakh, when ACB raided, 55 lakh more was found, his wife is also an AEN
If there was evidence, immediate action would have been taken
It is also said in the petition that ACB has not found any evidence against Mayor Munesh. When ACB conducted the trap operation a year ago, if evidence was found against Munesh, then ACB could have taken immediate action. Considering Munesh as an accused after so many days is the result of political animosity. Advocate Deepak Chauhan says that Mayor Munesh has no connection with the corruption case. The complainant also only accused Sushil Gurjar of taking bribe. In such a situation, it is clear that Munesh Gurjar has been implicated as part of a conspiracy. His name has been added to the FIR due to political animosity.
The High Court has given big relief twice
The Rajasthan High Court has given a big relief to Jaipur Municipal Corporation Heritage Mayor Munesh Gurjar twice. The first time was when the previous government suspended her from the post of mayor just two days after the ACB action. Then the High Court had termed this decision of the government as wrong, so Munesh again occupied the post of mayor. On 22 September 2023, the previous government suspended Munesh for the second time. The High Court had given a big relief to Munesh by terming this decision of the Gehlot government as wrong. Now the sword of suspension is hanging over Munesh. Even before the suspension, his lawyer has presented a new petition on behalf of Munesh.
