Delhi High Court Dismisses Lalu Yadav’s Plea
Delhi High Court has dismissed a plea by Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad Yadav, seeking to halt trial proceedings in the ‘land-for-jobs’ scam case, investigated by the CBI. The case alleges that during his tenure as railway minister from 2004 to 2009, Yadav exchanged railway jobs for land parcels transferred to his family. Yadav’s argument centered on the lack of mandatory prior sanction for investigation under the Prevention of Corruption Act, which the CBI opposed, stating that the necessary sanction had been secured.
