Chandigarh, July 4: The one-member judicial commission, set up to probe the alleged role of Irrigation and Power Minister Rana Gurjit Singh in the sand mining auction, on Monday sought an extension after the lapse of its one-month deadline.
Justice JS Narang (retd), who heads the commission, was asked to submit the report within a month. The terms of reference and constitution of the commission was formally notified on May 31. The one-month term of the commission came to an end last week. Sources in the Chief Minister’s office confirmed that the government had received a request from the commission seeking an extension. They said the decision would be taken tomorrow. When contacted, Justice Narang refused to talk, saying he was busy with the probe.
