Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat

Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat (भवरसिंह शेखावत) is an Indian politician and member of the Indian National Congress. Shekhawat was a former chairman of Apex Bank Madhya Pradesh,[1] and currently member of the Madhya Pradesh Legislative Assembly from Badnawar and previously from Indore-5.[2][3][4]

Prosecution Sanction, 2013

On 26 June 2013, the Madhya Pradesh state government granted sanction to prosecute Shekhawat and eight others for allegedly facilitating a wrongful settlement of a loan taken by IAS officer Ramesh Thete’s wife, Manda. The Lokayukta’s Special Police Establishment had earlier registered an FIR and sought prosecution approval.[5]

Allegations and Case Details

Manda Thete had obtained a loan of ₹25 lakh in 2001 which grew to ₹93 lakh due to accrued interest. Despite defaults and existing criminal proceedings, bank officials purportedly arranged a settlement for ₹53 lakh. Shekhawat was implicated for approving this settlement in contravention of rules.[6]
