Puja Khedkar's Father Under Scanner: ACB Pune Receives Complaint Over Disproportionate Assets
Real Estate Pune:The Pune unit of the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) has received a complaint application seeking an open inquiry against Dilip Khedkar, a retired government official and father of controversial IAS probationer Puja Khedkar, in connection with alleged disproportionate assets. The complaint alleges that Khedkar's assets are disproportionate to his known sources of income.

The Pune ACB unit has sought directions from the ACB headquarters, as there is already an ongoing inquiry regarding disproportionate assets to known sources of income by the Nashik division of the ACB against Dilip Khedkar. According to Amol Tambe, Superintendent of Police, Pune ACB, an open inquiry against Dilip Khedkar is currently underway at the Ahmednagar unit by Nashik ACB. The Pune ACB has recorded the complainant's statement and forwarded the complaint to ACB headquarters along with the evidence.

Directions have been sought from the ACB headquarters to either incorporate the fresh complaint into the ongoing inquiry or whether to conduct a separate open inquiry. Meanwhile, Puja Khedkar's parents Manorama and Dilip Khedkar remain untraceable days after police registered an FIR against them over a video purportedly showing Manorama threatening some individuals with a gun following a land dispute in Mulshi tehsil of Pune district.

The Pune civic body has also issued a notice to Khedkar's mother over a real estate issue. Puja Khedkar is under scrutiny for her claims regarding disability and OBC certificates used to clear the IAS, as well as her conduct during her tenure at the Pune collector's office. Amid the row, the government on Tuesday put on hold the 'district training program' of Khedkar, who was earlier transferred to Washim as a supernumerary assistant collector from Pune, as she was summoned back to the Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration for 'necessary action.',
