Reacting to the political developments after his press conference, Congress leader KK Mishra on Monday asked Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan to order a probe in the multi-crore MPPEB scam and also alleged the involvement of a powerful person in this case.
"It is my direct allegation that without some big shot, such a large-scale scam cannot take place. If the honourable Chief Minister is agitated because of it, then I would politely request him to allow a transparent probe," Mishra told.
He added that at least 139 calls went from CM's home, those call details must be made public. If there is no truth in my allegations then jailed ex-minister laxmikant Sharma should undergo Narco test. He will reveal the names of people recommended by Chief Minister's wife."
Mishra dared the Chief Minister to file a defamation case against him as threatened by the BJP.
"The Chief Minister can file as many defamation cases against me as he wants, will fully reveal his wife's role soon and others from his family. Such defamation case cannot stop my voice of speaking the truth. There is no rule of law here, it is only his writ which is running and seems to be above law,"
he said.
"If he has zero tolerance towards corruption, then under whose supervision has such multi-crore scam taken place," he added.
The recruitment scam had reportedly involved manipulation in the selection process for government jobs conducted by the Madhya Pradesh Professional Examination Board (MPPEB).
