New Delhi: Former Biju Janata Dal Rajya Sabha member Renubala Pradhan will meet the Central Bureau of Investigation officials on Monday regarding the Leave and Travel Concession (LTC) scam. Pradhan has been named as an accused in the case filed by the CBI on Friday.

The CBI had filed a case against three sitting and three former Rajya Sabha MPs for cheating, forgery in the LTC scam on Friday. The MPs were booked under sections 420 and 13 (1)D.

The sitting MPs are D Bandopadhyay (TMC), Brijesh Pathak (BSP), Lal Ming Liana (MPF) while the former MPs are JPN Singh (BJP), Renu Bala (BJD), Mehmood A Madni (RLD).

All the MPs arranged fake tickets and boarding passes and got full fare reimbursed for their trip. To add to the surprise, most of the MPs have done this at least three to four times. MPs were allowed companion tickets only by paying taxes.

In November 2013, JDU MP Anil Sahni was booked by the CBI in leave travel fraud case in which Member of Parliaments had allegedly inflated travel bills. The CBI conducted raids on various properties owned by the JDU MP.
