A Deputy Mamlatdar in Gujarat’s Surendranagar district is under scrutiny by the Anti-Corruption Bureau for allegedly owning assets exceeding his legitimate income by over Rs 1.22 crore. The officer, Chandrasinh Mori, is accused of acquiring assets through unlawful means between April 2013 and December 2025, as per the ACB’s official statement.
Chandrasinh Mori, a Class-3 officer in the Collector’s office, has been named in a case under the Prevention of Corruption Act. The investigation revealed that he amassed assets worth Rs 1,22,27,658 beyond his known income sources, leading to the filing of charges on April 8. The case originated from a prior inquiry prompted by the Enforcement Directorate’s communication.
A Special Investigation Team was formed to delve into the allegations against Mori, focusing on whether he gained disproportionate assets through illegal methods or misusing his position. The probe is linked to suspected irregularities in land use change applications at the Surendranagar Collectorate, with alleged bribery practices for expediting approvals.
