PUNE: A
tehsildar (revenue officer) posted in Pune district was caught red-handed by
the Anti-Corruption Bureau officials Saturday while allegedly accepting a bribe
of Rs one crore.
Sachin Dongare (43), the accued, had sought the bribe to
facilitate registration of new names in land records, an ACB official said. The
complainant in the case wanted to register his heir's name in the records of
