Central Bureau of Investigation(CBI) summons Uttarakhand CM Harish Rawat in alleged bribery case

Uttarakhand Chief Minister Harish Rawat was summoned by CBI asking him to appear before it on Monday Dec 26,2016 in connection with a probe into allegations of bribe against him

The CBI had registered the preliminary enquiry on April 29 to probe a sting operation that purportedly showed Rawat offering bribes to rebel Congress MLAs to support him during the floor test. The agency had summoned Rawat for examination on May 9, but he had sought more time.
The case was handed over to the CBI when President’s Rule was imposed in the state. The notification was withdrawn immediately after Rawat proved his majority in the assembly and his government was restored.
