A social activist advocate Dr. Sandeep Pahal sent complaints to the Raj Bhavan and Prof RP Singh was dismissed on June 27 2005. He filed a petition in the high court against his dismissal but the court rejected his petition due to lack of evidence and serious allegations against him.
Since then the case was under investigation which has now been taken up by the ED.
