Rajasthan IAS IPS Couple: The Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) in Rajasthan is examining a series of villa purchases linked to a senior IAS officer, his IPS wife and their relatives, according to a Dainik Bhaskar report. These are allegations under investigation, and no finding of wrongdoing has been reported.
DON'T MISS
What The Probe Has Found
According to Dainik Bhaskar, the investigation has identified 16 villas at the Ajabgarh property and 20 at Bujhda, bringing the total to 36 across the two locations.
Who Reportedly Owns What
Dainik Bhaskar reports that eight Ajabgarh villas were allegedly bought in the names of the officer, identified as Agrawal, and his wife at about Rs 16.5 lakh each. Four more were registered in the names of their sons at around Rs 15 lakh each. Another four were reportedly registered in the names of his parents-in-law at about Rs 16.5 lakh each.
The Value Of The Properties
Based on the reported prices, the report puts the combined value of the 36 properties at about Rs 5.52 crore. That figure holds only if the stated prices are accurate.
The Finance Department Link
According to the ACB, as cited by Dainik Bhaskar, the Finance Department issued a special concessional financial package to Goyal Fashions Private Limited on March 27, 2026. Investigators also found information indicating that 20 villas were registered in the names of Agrawal and his family members on the same date.
What Remains Unclear
The report does not say whether the package and the registrations are connected, and it does not say how the ACB views any link. The officer’s response was not part of the material I reviewed.
The Wider Question
The allegations raise a question about conflicts of interest when serving officers hold property linked to firms that deal with government departments. Only the ACB’s findings, and any response from the officer, will settle that.
