June 07, 2025

J&K Anti-Corruption Bureau presented a chargesheet in the Court of Special Judge Anti-Corruption, Baramulla for the illegal appointment of 82 persons in Municipal committee (MC) Sumbal Bandipora during 2009-2010.

The chargesheet was submitted on Thursday against Ghulam Ahmad Wani alias Gulzar, then President of MC Sumbal, Abdul Rashid Shah, then In-Charge Executive Officer, and 82 beneficiaries.

The case originated from a complaint received by the then Vigilance Organization Kashmir (VOK), now ACB J&K, regarding large-scale fraudulent appointments in Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) across Kashmir.

A probe by VOK revealed that during 2009-2010, President and In-charge Executive Officer MC Sumbal, in league with accused beneficiaries by abuse of their official position and in gross violation of the standing government rules, made 82 illegal appointments of various persons to different posts on the regular pay scale.
