Tejashwi Yadav skips third CBI summons in ‘Land for Job’ scam: Report

Bihar’s Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav was summoned by the CBI on Tuesday to join the investigation in the national capital in connection with the alleged ‘land for job’ scam but didn’t turn up, agency sources said.

This was the third notice issued to him which he skipped. Before this, Tejashwi Yadav was summoned to join the investigation on March 4 and 11, and on the previous summons, didn’t join the probe citing wife’s health issues.

Now, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) will send him a new summons in the coming days.

The agency had recently grilled his mother and former Bihar Chief Minister Rabri Devi and father and former Railway Minister Lalu Prasad Yadav in the matter.
