Adarsh scam cases being mishandled by Rajasthan government: Gehlot

Former Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Tuesday, April 21, 2026, accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government of mishandling the Adarsh ​​Credit Cooperative Society fraud cases in which a large number of investors from the state were defrauded. He said the fraud amounted to around ₹15,000 crore.

Addressing a press conference at his residence in Jaipur, Mr. Gehlot said that while the Enforcement Directorate had attached assets in 2019, 2021 and 2024, the process of ensuring the refund of investors’ money still remained unclear. “Under whose auspices such a huge uproar was allowed to take place?” he said.
