Sep 26, 2025 01:55 pm CST

The Madhya Pradesh High Court has criticized the state government for appearing to shield Cabinet Minister Govind Singh Rajput, who allegedly concealed assets worth hundreds of crores in his 2023 election affidavit. Court documents reveal Rajput and family acquired approximately 40 hectares of land between 2019-2024 while declaring only Rs 12 crore in assets, as the government stonewalls Election Commission inquiries.
