SAC closes case against Rather

Jammu, Feb 13: The State Accountability Commission (SAC) has closed the inquiry against the Minister for Finance and Ladakh Affairs regarding an allegation leveled by Yuva Shakti Mission in which, inter-alia, it was alleged that the Minister had given Smart Card contract to his son, an official handout said.
It said, earlier, some other allegations made by this Organization in its complaint were dropped by the Commission suo-moto at the preliminary stage of enquiry. Immediately after the allegations were leveled against him, the Finance Minister had in a press conference on 23 February 2012 described these allegations as baseless adding that some elements had launched a vilification campaign against him to tarnish his political career.
Rather had filed reply in SAC even when it had become clear that the credentials of the complainant were not established. He had, however, expressed full faith in the wisdom of the Commission in delivering justice.
The Commission in the concluding para of its order dated 12.02.2013 has observed: “This Commission would not have jurisdiction to proceed on anonymous complaints filed without giving sufficient particulars of the complainant(s) so as to identify them, like the instant complaint, as such we are unable to proceed further in the matter. The inquiry is therefore closed. Records received from the concerned departments be returned.”
