PANAJI: Revenue Minister Babush Monserrate today has demanded an independent probe into cash for jobs scam.
Monserrate demanded that those who gave money for employment should also be booked under stringent sections, as they were out to deprive those who qualified for the jobs.
“My stand is very clear. Govt should book both the giver as well as the takers. Givers paid money to buy the job as they knew that their children could not meet the criteria of recruitment and tried to deprive those qualified for the job,”
The BJP minister said that govt is not a recovery agent to seize the property of the accused and pay those who tried to buy the job. Instead, govt should order an inquiry under a retired judge to ensure transparency in the investigation.
