The Rajasthan government has reinstated suspended IAS officer Niraj K Pawan. The 2003-batch IAS officer was suspended in May last year following his arrest in connection with a graft case.
The state Anti- Corruption Bureau (ACB) had arrested him along with a Rajasthan Administrative Service (RAS) officer in a bribery case involving Rs 1.5 crore.
The alleged scam took place when Pawan was posted as the additional mission director in the state's national health mission. However, he was arrested when he was the Commissioner of the agriculture department.
