BVAGDADADADADADAD, India. In 1996, the officials of the corporation have built 200 economic houses for the Below Poverty Line . In the response to the project tender, 11 builders have quoted. Khandesh Builders were awarded the contract.[4]
Jalgaon Housing Scam
The scam was exposed when Praveen Gedam, the municipal commissioner of Jalgaon, filed a First Information Report against Suresh Jain and Gulabrao Devkar, the sitting ministers of Maharashtra. Chandrakant Sonawane, a member of the 13th Maharashtra Legislative Assembly and the architect of the project, along with 90 others, were both sued for providing forged documents and also for delaying and overriding multiple deadlines.[5] After years of court proceedings, Dhule District Court sentenced Jain and Devkar to seven and five years in prison, respectively.[6][7]
Devkar and Jain were sentenced and booked by the Dhule court under the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, India Penal Code Section 420, and many sections of corruption, misuse of office, cheating, theft of taxpayer money, submitting forged documents, fraud, and confidence tricks.[8][9] The Jalgaon housing scam was one of the largest scams of Maharashtra, totaling Rs 110-crore. Investigation revealed that Minister Suresh Jain, Gulabrao Devkar, Khandesh Builders, the architects, and other corporates conspired to exploit the Government of India's affordable housing initiative, Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana–then called the Gharkul scheme.
A police investigation led by IPS officer Ishu Sindhu exposed that the owners of Khandesh Builders were friends with Suresh Jain and that the entity's headquarters were located at Jain's residence. The money given by Jalgaon Municipal Corporation to Khandesh Builders first advanced Rs 15-crore then Rs 45-crore routed to firms owned by Jain's friends and family members. Builders started work on 5,000 houses but completed only 1,500.[10]
