Delhi Court Reserves Order on Satyendar Jain's Bail Plea in DJB Tender Scam
A Delhi court has reserved its order on the bail plea of former minister and AAP leader Satyendar Jain in the alleged Delhi Jal Board tender scam case for September 3. Jain, arrested by the Anti-Corruption Branch, faces allegations of favouring a private technology provider through restrictive tender conditions. His lawyers argued the arrest was unnecessary and related to policy decisions, while prosecutors opposed bail. Other accused, including former DJB CEO Udit Prakash Rai, are also involved in the case.
