Earlier in June, the CBI had arrested the principal of Kendriya Vidyalaya while he was allegedly taking a ₹1 lakh bribe from a contractor to approve the release of pending funds.

The action against the Union Bank staff started after a complaint was filed by Roshan Chaurasia, a trader from Sasaram. In his complaint, he said that both bank officials were:

  • Harassing him
  • Demanding money to approve his Mudra loan application

After checking and verifying that his complaint was genuine, the CBI set a trap and arrested the two bank officials inside the bank itself, as part of a well-planned operation.
