Kerala HM Orders Vigilance Probe into Bribery Allegations Against CEC Gyanesh Kumar

Kerala Home Minister Ramesh Chennithala has ordered a Vigilance and Anti-Corruption Bureau probe into fresh bribery allegations against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. A former contractor alleged that Kumar demanded a ₹2 crore bribe nearly two decades ago to release approved road project payments, a delay that reportedly led to financial distress and a Malaysian engineer's suicide in 2006.
