TheTimesOfIndia 02/09/2011


AHMEDABAD: Bhikhabhai Jethava who sought the appointment of a Lokayukta in a petition before the high court, on Thursday dashed off a legal notice to the state government seeking direction to stay industrial houses from developing plots, that are under the judicial scrutiny of the justice M B Shah commission of inquiry.
The state government set up the inquiry commission by a notification on August 16 to probe 17 different charges leveled by the opposition party against the Narendra Modi government by tendering a memorandum to the governor. Nine of these accusations of corruption are related to allotment of land to different companies to set up industries and hotels.
Jethava is expecting the authorities' reply within three days; else he has threatened to take the issue to the Gujarat high court by filing a writ petition.
