New Delhi (01.08.2023): Union Home Ministry suspended former Delhi Jal Board (DJB) CEO Udit Prakash Rai (IAS: 2007: AGMUT) with immediate effect for allegedly razing a heritage monument among other charges.
The Vigilance department had issued a show-cause notice to Rai for allegedly demolishing a “Pathan period” Mahal dating back to 1418 AD and for building a government accommodation in its place to move in as the then DJB CEO.
The period for which this order shall remain in force, the headquarters of Rai shall be Mizoram and he shall not leave the headquarters without obtaining prior permission of the Competent Authority. Meanwhile, following the directions of the Vigilance department, the DJB on July 28 issued an eviction notice to Rai to vacate the house in 15 days. Rai was posted out of Delhi to Mizoram this year, but his family still lives in the new accommodation.
