The deputy commissioner, Ravindra Sheshrao Jadhav (51), and his aide, clerk Anand Jadhav, were nabbed by the ACB which laid a trap after receiving a complaint from the teacher, he said.
Ravindra Jadhav had demanded Rs 15,000 as a bribe from the teacher which was to be paid through the clerk, the official said.
The teacher agreed to pay the money and at the same time lodged a complaint with the ACB, he said.
