The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has reportedly sent a notice to the former Governor of Jammu and Kashmir, Satya Pal Malik, to appear for questioning regarding corruption allegations. According to sources, the CBI has asked Malik to appear for questioning on April 27th and 28th. The agency is said to be investigating corruption cases related to Malik's tenure as the Governor of the state.

Sources suggest
that the CBI is particularly interested in irregularities in two projects in
Jammu and Kashmir. Two cases have already been registered in this regard during
Malik's tenure as the Governor. The questioning is expected to take place at a
guest house on Akbar Road.
However, there
has been no official confirmation or statement from the CBI regarding the
notice or the questioning of Satya Pal Malik. It remains to be seen what
further developments will take place in this case.
The two cases
are:-
"The offer
was to pass the file in exchange for money."
In October 2021,
Satyapal Malik claimed that he was offered a bribe of Rs. 300 crores to clear a
file related to an RSS leader. Following this, an investigation was launched
and a case was registered against unknown persons. Satyapal Malik had
previously been questioned in October 2020 regarding this matter.
The offer of a
bribe in exchange for clearing a file raises serious concerns about corruption
and highlights the need for strict measures to prevent such incidents. The
investigation into this matter must be carried out thoroughly to identify those
responsible and bring them to justice. The case also highlights the importance
of transparency and accountability in government and political affairs.
A statement was
given against the Farmers' Bill.
It is noteworthy
that Satyapal Malik has been a vocal critic of the central government for a
long time. He had also spoken in support of the farmers who were protesting
against the farm bills. During that time, the central government also opposed
the bills passed by the parliament. He had said that the cancellation of the
three agricultural laws by the central government is a historic victory for the
farmers. The government will have to work honestly in relation to withdrawing
the cases filed against the protesting farmers. He also said that the
government must legally provide a minimum support price (MSP) for crops. Malik
had said that he himself was also against these agricultural laws.
