Amid marriage preparations of Tej Pratap Yadav, CBI questions Rabri Devi in IRCTC hotel scam

Former Bihar Chief Minister Rabri Devi was today questioned by the CBI in Patna in a case of alleged corruption in handing over IRCTC hotels management to a private firm when her husband and RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav was the railway minister, officials said here.
The CBI officials made it clear that only Rabri Devi was questioned at her residence in Patna rejecting the claims by RJD leaders that her son Tejashwi Yadav was also quizzed.
"Only Rabri Devi was questioned today. We have already questioned Tejashwi Yadav in connection with the case," an official said here.
They said that a team of officials questioned Rabri Devi on the issues pertaining to change in ownership of Delight Marketing Company owned by Sarla Gupta, to Lara Projects owned by Rabri Devi and son Tejashwi.
It is alleged that after the tender was awarded to Sujata Hotel, the ownership of Delight Marketing Company changed hands from Sarla Gupta to Rabri Devi and Tejashwi Yadav between 2010 and 2014. By this time, Prasad had resigned as railway minister.
Meanwhile, RJD leaders attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, alleging that it was a malicious exercise and wondered if it was a coincidence that their leader had been questioned by the CBI when the prime minister was visiting the state.
