The opposition Congress has demanded the registration of a criminal offence in connection with purchase of a land in the name of Chhattisgarh minister Brijmohan Agrawal's wife in Mahasamund district after a local court nullified the sale deed recently.
When contacted, the minister, who is also the BJP candidate from Raipur Lok Sabha seat, declined to comment.
Citing the court order, State Congress president Deepak Baij on Sunday claimed Mr. Agrawal allegedly fraudulently acquired the property, belonging to the State water resources department, in the name of his wife and built a resort there.
