Congress leader Indira Doody was reinstated as Pradhan in Chidawa, Shekhawati, after one year. The BJP government found the corruption charges leveled against her baseless and gave her a clean chit.
Jhunjhunu: Congress leader Indira Doody has been reinstated as Pradhan in Chidawa region of Jhunjhunu district, Shekhawati zone, after a year. She was removed from the post last year following allegations of corruption and irregularities. However, the BJP government has now decided, after a state-level investigation, that all allegations against Indira Doody are unfounded.
With this decision, the political atmosphere in Chidawa has changed. Local BJP supporter and acting Pradhan Rohitash Dhanger had to vacate the post. In political circles, this is considered a major setback for BJP's opponents, and many political experts are calling it a big upheaval in politics.
Indira Doody Gets Clean Chit in State-Level Investigation
Following Indira Doody's removal, a district-level investigation had leveled charges of corruption and irregularities against her. However, she has now received a clean chit in a state-level investigation. The reinstatement order was issued with the signature of Additional Commissioner and Governance Secretary Trilok Chand Meena.
The investigation report clearly stated that there was no truth in the allegations. The actual cost of the alleged multi-crore scam in shop allocation was merely 16 lakh rupees. The state government clarified that Indira Doody's image is untarnished, and the accusations against her actions were politically motivated.
Major Setback for BJP's Opponents
Indira Doody's reinstatement has weakened the position of the local BJP leadership and the acting Pradhan. Opposition leaders consider this a political upheaval. Political analysts say this move is a significant step towards reactivating Congress's b hold in the Chidawa region.
After her reinstatement, Indira Doody stated that her focus would now be on serving the region's water, health, education, and cowsheds. She also clarified that her objective is not to get entangled in political disputes but to work for the welfare of the local populace.
Political Stir in Shekhawati Politics
The Chidawa area is also the home constituency of Congress MP Brijendra Ola and former Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar. Therefore, this decision by the BJP government has become a topic of discussion in political circles. Many experts are calling it a strategic move by the BJP, considering Indira Doody's untarnished image.
Local leaders say that this step could also be significant in view of the upcoming elections. Indira Doody's return has boosted the morale of Congress supporters, and an acceleration in political activities is anticipated.
