A case of disproportionate assets was registered against Vivek Kumar, a 2007 batch IPS officer. The SVU (Special Monitoring Unit) had disclosed assets disproportionate to assets in the search operation on April 17, 2018. After this big disclosure, the SP was suspended.

A case was registered against the IAS and his wife, later the General Administration Department suspended the IAS.
Tree Seller IAS
Former Gaya DM Abhishek Singh is such an IAS officer who has been accused of giving benches to government trees. The Special Vigilance Unit (SVU) had registered a case against IAS Abhishek Singh in this case. Abhishek Singh was the DM of Gaya from January 2018 to January 2022. During this, he got the precious trees cut from many places along with the government residence without the permission of the government and then sold it. Tripura cadre IAS Abhishek was also the Municipal Commissioner in Patna. Along with this, the Nitish government also made him the MD of Budco. The setting was such that even after the end of the Inter State Cadre Deputation Service, he was given two extensions of 6-6 months.
SP does not have a car even after earning black money
After raiding the premises of 2014 batch IPS Daya Shankar, Special Vigilance has got huge evidence of black money, but the shocking thing is that even after this, Daya Shankar does not have a single vehicle. Father Shivji Prasad and mother Shiv Kumari Devi are dependent with wife Khushboo Shankar and two sons. But there is no bike in the family in anyone’s name. IPS Daya Shankar, who gave the details of income to the Bihar government in 2021-22, has told a big lie. Along with himself and his wife, the parents were said to have a total of 40 thousand cash, but in the special vigilance raid, 28 lakh gold and 2.96 lakh cash were found from the SP residence and 1.52 lakh cash from the Patna residence.
lied to the government, two car papers in the house
Two flats of Winsome Empire located in Danapur were merged to form a flat. 67 lakh rupees were spent on its interior. The government was informed that they do not have any agricultural land, but in the raids of the Special Vigilance, evidence of investment in real estate along with tea gardens has been found. The government was also told a big lie about the vehicle, during the raid, two vehicles Innova and Jeep Compass have been found from the flat of SP, it is being investigated. Not only this, a diary has been found in the raid, which is going to expose the honest distribution of black money. In the diary recovered from the house of the SP, there is an account from June 2018 to August 2018. In this, there is a complete account of transactions of Rs 22 lakh. How much was given to whom and how much was given to whom?
Big game of bribery: 45 hundred corrupt officers exposed in 16 years
CM Nitish Kumar talks about zero tolerance, but the root of strong corruption in Bihar is not weakening. Talking about the figures, in the last 16 years, 45 hundred corrupt officers have been caught in Bihar. Out of these, the number of 28 is of IAS and IPS, the rest include BDO, SDO, DTO to big officials of other departments. These officers have been exposed by the Vigilance. Surveillance had released the list of such corrupt officers in May 2022, on the demand of cleanliness certificates of officers from 38 districts of the state. 28 IAS and IPS were included in the list of surveillance, in which investigation is going on against some and properties of some have been confiscated. Apart from senior IAS and IPS officers, 4517 other departments are included in the list.
black money forgetting oath
The IAS IPS, who come to the job by taking an oath to be faithful and true allegiance to the country and the constitution of the country, come after passing the country’s biggest examination. They also take the oath established by law and to maintain the sovereignty and integrity of India, they also take oath to perform their office work faithfully and honestly without discrimination, but if they get addicted to black money, then all are forgotten. The same is being seen in Bihar at present. Daya Shankar, who was the SP of Purnia, was also honored by CM Nitish Kumar for better work in February 2022, former Gaya DM and corrupt officer Abhishek was honored by Prime Minister Narendra Modi for providing electricity to every household. But such officers are not able to save the honor of that honor even in front of corruption.
Many bungalows of DGP’s black money
Bihar’s former DGP Narayan Mishra had also created crores of wealth from black money. Surveillance had registered a case of disproportionate assets against former DGP Narayan Mishra and his wife while on the job. In this case, it was alleged that Narayan Mishra had acquired movable and immovable assets worth Rs 1.40 crore between 1984 and February 2007. An order for confiscation of the property was also issued. The Patna High Court in its judgment was earned by corruption by him. The decision to confiscate assets worth about Rs 1.40 crore was stamped.
The bungalow prepared from the black money of the former DGP was confiscated by the Patna district administration. Several plots along with the bungalow were also confiscated by the Patna district administration after the court’s decision. This was the first time in the history of Bihar that the former DGP was suspended in the case of disproportionate assets while in service and most of his assets made out of black money were also confiscated. According to the police officers, the former DGP had built many bungalows and also bought many lands. He earned a lot of black money because Vigilance was not active in Bihar during that time, but this action of Bihar Police created a stir in the administrative staff.
Fat salary is also getting less
According to the 7th Pay Commission, IAS and IPS officers get a basic salary of Rs 56100. Apart from this, along with TA, DA and HRA, many other allowances are also given to these officers. Even after dearness allowance and many other allowances, the officers and their families fall short of the amount received from the government. In Bihar, in the disclosure of Vigilance, in 80 to 90 percent of the cases, the officers along with their family members have been found involved in the cases of bribery. This can be judged to strengthen the root of corruption in the system.
The former agriculture minister had opened the pole of the system
Sudhakar Singh, former Agriculture Minister of Bihar Government, has also disclosed the corruption prevalent in the bureaucracy of the state. Sudhakar Singh had opened a front against his own government over corruption. He made serious allegations of corruption against the officers. When the Vigilance and other agencies are engaged in exposing the corrupt officers and in the meantime the minister of the government exposes such corrupt officers, then a big question arises on the system.
