The Punjab government has taken a step in its crackdown on drug trafficking and political corruption by filing a comprehensive chargesheet against former state cabinet minister Bikram Singh Majithia .
A 140-page chargesheet against Majithia was filed by the Punjab Vigilance Bureau following an extensive investigation into alleged corruption and illegal accumulation of assets.
The final report includes nearly 45,000 pages of evidence and scrutiny of around 400 bank accounts. Testimonies from more than 200 witnesses have been recorded as part of the investigation.
