SRINAGAR, June 15: Vigilance Organization Kashmir (VOK) has registered a case against then General Manager DIC Pulwama, proprietor of Mir Steel Rolling Mills and others for illegal sanction of power load, obtaining sanction for new induction Furnace and other equipments on the pretext of obtaining machinery for expansion and modernization of rolling mill etc.
During verification conducted by VOK, it was revealed that the General Manager DIC Pulwama, instead of rejecting the project report with a criminal intent in violation of rules, forwarded the case of beneficiary unit holder to the Director Industries and Commerce with a recommendation for favour for further process.
Verification further revealed that General Manager DIC Pulwama, namely Jalal-ud-Din Ganaie and the field staff, in the year 2015, under the garb of processing the project report of the beneficiary unit holder, allowed him to install Induction Furnace in utter violation which has also resulted in the usage/overload of power required for running of the said Induction Furnace. In this way the beneficiary unit holder in active connivance with the officers / officials of DIC Pulwama and Electric Sub Division Pulwama has been running the Induction Furnace by consuming extra and illegal load.
By acting in this manner, the officers/officials of DIC Pulwama and Electric Sub Division abused their official position and illegally conferred undue pecuniary advantage upon the beneficiary unit holder thereby causing corresponding loss to the State exchequer.
Accordingly, a case FIR No. 15/2016 under Section 5(1)(d) r/w 5(2) J&K PC Act, Svt 2006 and 120-B RPC, was registered in Police Station VOK against Jalal-ud-Din Ganie, the then General Manager DIC Pulwama, Mohammad Yousuf beneficiary and Haji Ghulam Mohi ud Din Mir, Proprietor Mir Steel Rolling Mills and others.
