According to him, Uttarakhand Governor Dr Aziz Qureshi has also ordered the State Government to order a high-level probe into the scams that have tken place during his tenure in the department. Bisht said that a writ has been filed under the Special Court Corruption Eradication Act.

The Committee will not tolerate corruption in any of the Government and private departments and will also hit the roads, if the State Government does not take effective steps to curb corruption cases in the State.
