Indian Express reports an Ahmedabad Court has allowed Vipul Chaudhary, former Home Minister of Gujarat and former chairman of GCMMF to fight the election of Mehsana Dudhsagar dairy management scheduled for early next year.
Chaudhary is allegedly involved in the bonus scam of Rs 14.8 crore. However, the court has sent Chaudhary to judicial custody.
Meanwhile former chief minister Shankersinh Vaghela said Chaudhary was a target of a political witch hunt ahead of the elections. Dudhsagar dairy, one of the leading dairies connected to GCMMF, had a turnover of Rs 4,700 crore in 2018-19.
