In the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) scam case, which the CBI filed in January 2019, Prasad was given bail. He had received orders from the Delhi court not to tamper with the evidence or leave the country without permission.
In its chargesheet submitted between 2004 and 2014, the CBI alleged that a conspiracy was hatched as a result of which the BNR hotels of the Indian Railways, which are located in Puri and Ranchi, were first transferred to IRCTC and later given on lease to Sujata Hotels Private Limited, which is based in Patna, Bihar, for its operations, maintenance, and upkeep.
The investigation agency also said that PK Goyal, the IRCTC’s managing director at the time, “rigged and manipulated” the contract process and altered the terms to benefit the private party Sujata Hotels.
The ED filed a money laundering complaint against Prasad, his wife Rabri Devi, his son Tejaswi Yadav, and others based on the CBI case.
