Bhiwandi-Nizampur Municipal Corporation’s ‘Magic Pen Scam’: Sanitation Workers Marked Present While Absent, Draw Salaries For Months

Bhiwandi: A serious controversy has erupted within the sanitation department of the Bhiwandi-Nizampur Municipal Corporation (BNMC), with allegations that attendance records of sanitation workers were manipulated to show absent employees as present, enabling them to continue drawing salaries from the civic treasury despite allegedly remaining off duty for prolonged periods.Scam Name & ConcernsThe alleged irregularity, now being widely referred to as BNMC’s “Magic Pen Scam,” has triggered concerns over financial misappropriation, administrative negligence, and possible collusion within the civic body’s sanitation machinery.The matter was brought to light by corporator Abdul Rehman Khan alias Saddam, who claimed to have personally verified attendance records at a sanitation cabin in Ward No. 14. According to Khan, several sanitation workers who had allegedly not reported for duty for months were nevertheless reflected as regularly present in official records.Tampering MethodSources familiar with the inquiry alleged that absentee entries initially recorded in attendance registers and muster rolls were subsequently altered before salary processing. In several instances, records that reportedly showed workers absent were allegedly modified, with attendance markings and signatures appearing in their place at a later stage.The alleged tampering allowed certain employees to continue receiving monthly salaries from public funds despite questions over their actual presence on duty, sources claimed.Public OutrageThe revelations have sparked outrage among residents who have long complained about inadequate sanitation services across various parts of Bhiwandi. Persistent issues such as uncollected garbage, overflowing waste dumps, foul odour, and irregular cleaning operations have remained major civic concerns despite the municipal corporation employing a large sanitation workforce.“Residents frequently complain about poor cleanliness standards and the apparent absence of sanitation workers in several localities. If employees were drawing salaries without reporting for duty, it raises serious questions about accountability and supervision within the department,” said a local resident.Inquiry OrderedTaking the allegations seriously, Deputy Commissioner Vikram Darade ordered an internal inquiry into the matter. During the preliminary investigation, officials reportedly found prima facie irregularities in the maintenance of attendance records. Acting on the findings, Darade suspended the concerned Health Inspector Santosh Jadhav pending further investigation.While the suspension marks the first major administrative action in the case, public representatives and civic activists argue that the alleged scam may extend beyond a single official or sanitation cabin.Unanswered QuestionsSeveral critical questions remain unanswered. If attendance records were manipulated, how long had the practice been continuing? How many employees benefited from the alleged fraud? What was the total financial burden imposed on the municipal exchequer through salaries paid against allegedly fabricated attendance records? And was the operation confined to one ward, or indicative of a larger network functioning within the sanitation department?From P L Deshpande To Sonali Kulkarni: NGMA Exhibition Chronicles Marathi Cinema’s Rich LegacyThe BNMC employs more than 2,000 sanitation workers across the city. Despite this sizeable workforce, concerns regarding cleanliness and waste management continue to surface regularly, prompting repeated scrutiny from residents and elected representatives.The latest allegations have intensified demands for a comprehensive audit of attendance registers, salary disbursement records, deployment logs, and supervisory mechanisms across all wards. Civic activists have called for an independent investigation and forensic examination of attendance records to determine the extent of the alleged manipulation.Observers believe the case could expose deeper administrative lapses if a detailed probe is undertaken. Many have also urged the municipal administration to introduce biometric attendance systems, GPS-based workforce monitoring, and digital record management to eliminate the possibility of manual tampering in the future.What began as a routine complaint regarding sanitation staff attendance has now evolved into a potentially significant civic scandal with implications for public accountability and financial transparency. Investigators will now have to determine whether the alleged “magic pen” was merely a tool used to alter records or evidence of a broader and more organised fraud operating within the municipal system.To get details on exclusive and budget-friendly property deals in Mumbai & surrounding regions, do visit: https://budgetproperties.in/

Thane Coastal Road Project Raises Flood Risk As Natural Drains Get Choked: Survey

​Thane: ​The ambitious Thane Coastal Road Project (Balkum to Gaimukh), designed to alleviate the city’s severe traffic congestion, has inadvertently triggered a massive environmental and safety hazard. A recent survey conducted by the local Tehsildar reveals that the ongoing construction has severely obstructed natural drainage systems, leaving several residential areas vulnerable to flash floods this monsoon season.​According to the investigation, the coastal road project—being executed by MMRDA through M/s Navayuga Engineering Co. Ltd.—runs parallel to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) water pipeline near Kolshet creek. Heavy construction activities have drastically narrowed or entirely blocked age-old natural streams (nalas) that drain rainwater from the hills into the creek. ​Key Findings from the Survey:​Choked Waterways: A major drainage channel carrying water from Balkum and Kolshet to the creek has dropped from its original width of 50 feet down to just 15 to 20 feet due to construction debris and temporary access roads built for piling works.​Illegal Dumping: Private landowners, local farmers, and developers are exploiting the temporary service roads to illegally transport and dump massive amounts of debris, soil, and construction waste (rabbit) directly into the creek buffer zones and sensitive mangrove areas.Mumbai: ‘Borivali Residents Will Get A Breath Of Relief,’ Says Sanjay Upadhyay After CM Fadnavis Inspects Coastal Road Work In Charkop ​Unchecked Private Construction: The Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC) has approved approximately 50 to 55 major residential and commercial projects along the Balkum-Kolshet creek belt. Developers have constructed unauthorised private roads over existing natural drainage paths, further choking the system.​Rising Flood Risk for Residential Hubs​The Tehsildar’s report warns that if immediate corrective measures and desilting are not carried out, rainwater flowing down from the hills will have no outlet. This creates an imminent flood risk for Kharegaon, Balkum, and Kolshet villages, as well as several prominent modern residential complexes.​Neighborhoods specifically highlighted as high-risk zones include Lodha Amara, Mhatreai Nagar, Kolshet Village, and Dosti West County. Authorities stress that a heavy downpour could cause creek and rain water to breach these housing societies, threatening lives and property.To get details on exclusive and budget-friendly property deals in Mumbai & surrounding regions, do visit: https://budgetproperties.in/

CIC Orders CBSE To Disclose Exam Expenditure & Answer Book Procurement Details Under RTI, Sets Aside Board’s Denial Of Information

New Delhi, Jun 14: The Central Information Commission (CIC) has directed the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) to disclose “point-wise categorical” information permissible under the RTI Act related to expenditure on exams and details of answer books, including the tendering and procurement process, for Class 10 and Class 12 board examinations.After setting aside the CBSE’s earlier denial of information under the RTI, the transparency panel asked it to furnish revised replies and said that the information exempt from disclosure may be redacted or masked under Section 10 of the RTI Act, while any denial under Section 8(1)(d) should be properly justified.The case arose from an RTI application seeking details of answer books used in Class 10 and Class 12 board examinations during the 2023-24 and 2024-25 sessions, including paper quality, number of pages, size, purchase cost, total expenditure, GST payments and details of the tender process for procurement of answer sheets.In its response, the CBSE disclosed certain specifications of the answer books, stating that the paper used ranged from 60 GSM to 120 GSM, answer books contained 8, 20, 32, 40 or 48 pages and were available in sizes of 22 x 28 cm and 37.5 x 54.5 cm.The board also said records regarding the weight of individual answer books were not maintained.However, information relating to the purchase cost of answer books, the number purchased and total expenditure incurred on procurement was denied under Section 8(1)(e) of the RTI Act.NIOS Class 10 Result 2026 Released At results.nios.ac.in; What’s Next?On queries regarding the tender process, names of participating firms, rates quoted and vendor selection, the CBSE said the matter was related to “confidential” and “sensitive” activities of board examinations and claimed exemption under sections 8(1)(d), 8(1)(e) and 8(1)(g) of the Act.The board also stated that expenditure data for examination fees was maintained on a financial year basis instead of academic sessions and declined to provide specific expenditure details. It also informed the applicant that expenditure on practical examinations was booked under a broader expenditure head and could not be segregated separately.The appellant challenged the response before the CIC, arguing that larger public interest and transparency warranted disclosure of information relating to procurement and expenditure.Information Commissioner Sudha Rani Relangi observed that the core issue in the appeal was the denial of information related to the “tender process for purchase of answer sheet and other related stationary materials” despite the appellant’s contention that larger public interest justified disclosure.The Commission found that the Central Public Information Officer (CPIO) had denied information under multiple exemption clauses “without giving any proper justification in this regard”.It also noted that the CPIO neither appeared during the hearing nor filed any written statement to justify the denial of information.”Accordingly, the impugned reply of the CPIO dated 18.03.2025 in the absence of any justification for denial of the information sought, is hereby set aside,” the CIC said.Referring to transparency in public procurement, the Commission observed that “time and again” the Supreme Court and the CIC had emphasised that such exemptions must be construed strictly to ensure accountability in public procurement and contracts by public authorities.Bihar Police Bust NEET-UG Fake Paper Racket In Muzaffarpur: Four Arrested For Duping Aspirants & Parents Via Social Media”Now, considering the averments of the Appellant during hearing regarding irregularity on such tenders, the Commission, deems it fit, to direct, CPIO to revisit the contents of the RTI application in question and provide a revised point-wise categorical replies along with relevant permissible information that can be provided as per the provisions of the RTI Act, 2005,” the CIC said.The CIC further said the CPIO ought to have disclosed permissible information while redacting only those portions exempt from disclosure under the RTI Act.”Information which are exempted from disclosure be redacted/masked under Section 10 of the RTI Act, 2005. In case the information sought is covered under Section 8 (1)(d) of the RTI Act, 2005, the CPIO may justify such denial by giving justification under Section 19 (5) of the RTI Act, 2005,” the order said.Section 8 (1) (d) deals information such as commercial confidence, trade secrets or intellectual property, the disclosure of which would harm the competitive position of a third party, unless the competent authority is satisfied that larger public interest warrants the disclosure of such information.

17-Year-Old Akshay Borgaonkar Stuns GM Luka Paichadze At 360 ONE Global Chess Festival

IM Akshay Borgaonkar, the 17-year-old from Pune, pulled off his second major upset win, this time over GM Luka Paichadze in the fourth round, to stamp his mark in the Masters Category of the 360 ONE Global Chess Festival, being played  at the World Trade centre. Top seed Iniyan Pa continued to impress as he grinded Boris Savchenko in a dead draw position to maintain his sole lead with 4 points as major and minor upsets rocked the sessions in all the three Categories. Trailing half a point behind Iniyan are IM Ayush Sharma and IM Soham Kamotra, while Borgaonkar, Apoorva Kamble, Aakash Sharadchandra Dalvi, Alexander Slizhevsky and Nitin Belurkar are bunched behind with 3 points each. Kamotra defeated higher rated compatriot Audi Ameya while Aysush defeated Jval Saurin Patel. GM Abhijeet Gupta survived several anxious moments before salvaging a draw against GM Alexei Federov. Vinicius Junior Rescues Brazil In 1-1 Draw Against Morocco At FIFA World Cup 2026 WIM Oshini Gunawarddhana Devindya defeated higher rated IM Nikhil Dikshit while GM Sankalp Gupta had to stay content with a draw against David Gochelashvili. In the Challenger Category, top seed Madhvendra Pratap Sharma was held to a draw by Vivaan Sardana which allowed Viresh Sharnarthi, Vedant Nagarkatte, Shlok Sharnarthi and Abhishek T N To jointly lead this section with a perfect score of 4 points. Madhvendra along with 18 others is trailing half a point behind the leaders. Ankit Das, Madhvendra Pratap Sharma and Nijesh R have all scored four successive victories to tally 4 points each and jointly lead the junior Category. Iniyan displayed tremendous tenacity and grit, refusing to settle for a draw against Savchenko even as the position dictated one after employing the Sicilian defence. The middle-game had some tense moments as Iniyan landed into a cramped position with Savchenko’s queen and rook infiltrating deep into his territory to pose problems. The complicated position had Savchenko consuming more time and later having too little left as Iniyan craftily make some tricky moves to get out of the passive position. Iniyan by then was ahead by more than an hour on the clock and with his queen zig-zagging across the board, Savchenko fell into a checkmating net set up by Iniyan’s queen and knight after 69 moves. Iconic! DR Congo Returns To FIFA World Cup After 52 Years In Leopard-Printed Suits & Bags Luka Paichadze opted for the French Defence against Akshay Borgaonkar and his Queen was in enemy territory by the 19th turn indicating his aggressive approach. How-ever the inability of Luka’s other pieces to co-ordinate with the queen had the attack fizzling out. Luka’s position collapsed after a wrong knight move on the 23rd turn and it was Borgaonkar who was on the attacking side. Luka had by then lost plenty of pawns and when further faced with the loss of another piece, gave up the battle on the 38th move. Vivaan Sardana employed the Caro-Kann defence against higher ranked Madhvendra and this game hardly had any interesting moments as Black initiated the exchange of pieces at every possible opportunity. Peace was signed on the 54th moves when the last men standing on board were just the two kings. This is a good result for Vivaan. The game between Madhvendra and Aradhy Garg in the Queen’s Gambit saw a flurry of exchanges to transpose into a rook and pawn ending with identical pawns by the 28th turn. On the 32nd turn Aradhy decided against capturing a pawn, a decision which appeared dubious. There on Aradhya waged a lost battle before resigning on the 70th turn.

Beed: District Collector Vivek Johnson has intensified the probe into a massive sand mining scam involving the alleged illegal extraction of sand earmarked for beneficiaries of the government’s housing scheme (Gharkul) in Rakshasbhuvan along the Godavari River in Georai tehsil.Following reports of large-scale irregularities, in which sand allocated for economically weaker beneficiaries was allegedly diverted and sold in the open market, Collector Johnson conducted a marathon hearing on Thursday that lasted nearly five-and-a-half hours. During the hearing, he questioned around 50 revenue department employees and village-level officials who had earlier been served show-cause notices regarding their alleged involvement in the scam.The investigation gained momentum after Georai MLA Vijaysinh Pandit submitted a formal complaint along with supporting evidence. The probe reportedly revealed a significant discrepancy between the sanctioned and actual quantity of sand excavated. While the administration had approved the extraction of only 5,000 brass of sand for the housing project, an Electronic Total Station (ETS) survey and a subsequent drone survey conducted by a special team appointed by the collector found that more than 20,000 brass of sand had allegedly been extracted illegally.Speaking on the developments, District Collector Vivek Johnson said, “The hearing has been conducted. Stringent action will be taken against those found guilty. No irregularities will be tolerated.”Although the Collector has reserved his final decision, sources in the administration indicated that at least four village-level officials are likely to face suspension. The atmosphere at the District Collectorate remained tense throughout the day as officials awaited questioning.Beed Police Seize Illegal Sand & Tractor Worth ₹8.06 Lakh; Driver Escapes The scam allegedly involved members of the sand mafia obtaining OTPs in the names of housing scheme beneficiaries and using them to divert sand for illegal sale. The role of tipper truck operators and their alleged political patrons has also come under scrutiny.Critics have long alleged that despite clear evidence of illegal mining and transportation, local authorities failed to act due to political pressure. However, with the current administration adopting a tougher stance—evident from the extensive hearing and show-cause notices issued to 50 employees, including talathis and gram sevaks—a major crackdown on the nexus between corrupt officials, contractors and political elements appears likely.
