Maharashtra’s education department says it has digitised about 90% of teacher records ahead of a government deadline. The move was triggered by the “Shalarth ID scam,” where fake teacher credentials were used to benefit from salaries and job positions. The digital push includes uploading appointment letters, qualifications, and other documents. Physical verification will be done later to ensure integrity. For many teachers, this changes how promotions, salary, and pensions will be handled, and may also expose discrepancies. #EducationReform #TeacherRecords #DigitalIndia #Maharashtra #Transparency #AntiCorruption #EdTech #PublicSector #GovtScam #SchoolAdministration
The Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of Chhattisgarh has attached 16 properties linked to Saumya Chaurasia, a suspended former deputy secretary to ex-Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel, in connection with a coal levy scam. Investigators revealed that Chaurasia acquired approximately 45 properties worth nearly ₹47 crore, despite earning only ₹85.5 lakh in salary and allowances by October 2022. This marks the EOW’s first-ever property attachment under the Prevention of Corruption Act in the state. #ChhattisgarhNews #EconomicOffences #CoalLevyScam #AntiCorruption #PropertyAttachment #LegalAction #TransparencyMatters #PoliticalAccountability #NewsOne
