The compensation for land acquisition was raised from Rs 41 crore to Rs 353 crore but the report has claimed that the "scale of undue benefits" in the ܫdeal w▨as over Rs 897 crore.
Chief Secretary Kumar has denied any wrongdoing ♎in the matter and termed the allegations against him as "mudslinging" by people with vested interests against whom vigilance action was taken in corruption cases.
The vigilance minister's report was an outcome of an inquiry into a complaint that alleged that the chief secretary's son was employed by a person who was relative of benefited landowners🎉 in Bamnoli.
