Anti Corruption Bureau of Udaipur arrested a Revenue Officer for taking bribe from a farmer for transferring a land registration in his name. The accused Heeralal Vaidya was arrested red handed with Rs.10,000 bribe.

Tulsiram Meghwal has 3.5 Bigha of land allotted through Bhoodan Yagya Board, Jaipur. Meghwal approached revenue officer Heeralal to get the land transferred to his name. Heeralal demanded bribe for getting the work done.

Since Meghwal is illiterate and does not know how to read and write, he took along his friend to Heeralal Vaidya who demanded Rs.10000 for himself and same amount for the patwari.

Meghwal then approached ACB on 23^rd Sept and after thorough verification, ACB laid a trap to nab the accused.

As per the direction of ACB, Meghwal handed over the bribe amount to Vaidya. Immediately, the ACB team raided the office and arrested the officer red-hand.

According to Ad.SP (ACB)Rajendra Prasad Goyal, Heeralal Audichya is in service since 1975 and is on the post of revenue officer from June 2012. He has about two years to go before retirement.
