|June 06, 2025
Congress’ Ludhiana West candidate and ex-minister Bharat Bhushan Ashu has been summoned by the Ludhiana unit of the vigilance bureau in connection with a ₹2,400 crore scam involving misuse of school land in Sarabha Nagar.
LUDHIANA:
The summons, issued on June 4 by Deputy Superintendent of Police Vinod Kumar, directs Ashu to appear for questioning on Friday (June 6) at 10 am.
The case dates back to January 8, 2025, when an FIR was lodged at police station division no. 5 under Sections 420 (cheating), 120-B (criminal conspiracy), 467, 468, 471 (forgery), and 409 (criminal breach of trust) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
The case revolves around 4.7 acres of land allotted by the Ludhiana Improvement Trust (LIT) decades ago to run the New Senior Secondary School in Sarabha Nagar.
The land was given at a subsidized rate strictly for educational purposes.
However, investigations revealed that parts of this land are being illegally used for commercial activities.
