Rajasthan places IPS officer Prashakha Mathur on awaiting posting list
The move follows an Anti-Corruption Bureau investigation into property transactions involving her husband, IAS officer Shikhar Agrawal.
The Rajasthan government on Saturday placed 1995-batch IPS officer Prashakha Mathur on the awaiting posting orders (APO) list for administrative reasons, according to Times Now.
Mathur, who served as Additional Director General of Police (Planning, Modernisation and Welfare) in Jaipur, is the wife of IAS officer Shikhar Agrawal.
Agrawal, a 1993-batch officer, was placed on the APO list on October 28 following allegations regarding property transactions involving him and his family.
The Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) is investigating Agrawal for alleged irregularities in the purchase of 40 villas and cottages in Udaipur and Alwar districts.
ACB Director General Govind Gupta said a preliminary inquiry found prima facie evidence that Agrawal allegedly misused his official position to provide undue benefits to a private company.
The bureau alleges the properties were purchased from a hotel and resort company at prices substantially below market value, with some villas reportedly registered in Mathur's name.
