In a recent development in Nashik, Bansilal Mahadu Patil, aged 53 and serving as the Assistant Project Officer of Kalwan, was apprehended by the Anti-Corruption Department while accepting a bribe.
The incident unfolded when a complainant approached Patil concerning an issue with admission to an ashram school, as per the directives of the Project Officer in Kalwan. Allegedly, Patil demanded a bribe of ₹5,000 from the complainant to facilitate the resolution of the matter.
