PANJIM: North District Collector Nila Mohanan has suspended Tiswadi Circle Inspector Sahadev Mote following complaints of bribery. The suspension order was issued on Friday after an internal inquiry prima facie found him guilty.
“There were various complaints against Mote for demanding bribes. The Collectorate then conducted an internal inquiry and prima facie found the allegations were true. He has been suspended pending a departmental inquiry,” a source said.
The Revenue Department has been on a mission to weed out corruption. Under the Time Bound Delivery Services Act, Revenue Minister Rohan Khaunte had announced zero tolerance to corruption and no nonsense policy.
“We have adopted zero tolerance to corruption and no nonsense policy, for which every office will now have CCTV cameras which will monitored from the office of the District Collectors. This will reduce serious allegations of corruption and lethargy in completing the work,” Khaunte had said.
