Jaipur, Feb 19: : Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) has issued a Look Out Circular against former IAS officer of 1988-batch officer who retired on Dec 31, 2025 in connection with the alleged Jal Jeevan Mission (JJM) scam.
The LOC is an alert mechanism to prevent individuals from leaving the country, particularly if they are under investigation. While it does not serve as an arrest warrant, it is a measure to ensure that an accused individual does not flee while a case remains active.
The LOC has now been circulated to airports and border check posts, which means that if Officer attempts to travel abroad, authorities are authorized to stop him and inform the relevant investigative agencies.
The ACB's action comes just a day after it arrested nine officials from the Public Health Engineering Department, which included six serving senior officers and three retired Engineers.
This follows a series of coordinated raids conducted across Rajasthan and New Delhi tied to the same corruption case.
During these operations, ACB teams reached IAS Officer's residence but were unable to locate him, leading them to request the issuance of the LOC.
