The Jammu and Kashmir administration has published on its website the list of beneficiaries under the Roshni Act. The beneficiaries include former State ministers, retired civil servants and politicians. Among those who were allotted land under the now scrapped Act are Haseeb Drabu, former Finance Minister and ex-Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) leader; K.K Amla, businessman and Congress leader; Nighat Pandit, wife of retired IAS officer Shafi Pandit; Syed Akhoon of the National Conference; M.Y. Khan, former Chairman of J&K Bank; and Sujjad Kichloo, former National Conference Minister. In a related development, the Central Bureau of Investigation has registered another case in connection with the Rs. 25,000-crore “Roshni” scam, this time against the then District Collector of Jammu and others for alleged illegal grant of ownership of land parcels.
