Bhavesh Bhinde, director of the marketing firm Ego Media Pvt Ltd, is accused by BJP politician Kirit Somaiya of paying a Rs 46 lakh bribe to a company controlled by the wife of the then-Government Railway Police (GRP) Commissioner, Quaiser Khalid. This bribe was allegedly offered in exchange for permission to erect a hoarding that fell last month, reported PTI.
According to the report, Somaiya made these allegations about Ghatkopar hoarding collapse in a series of posts on the social media platform X. He further said that Ego Media Pvt Ltd paid Rs 5 crore to various railway police and Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) officials for permission to construct approximately two dozen illegal hoardings in the Ghatkopar and Dadar areas of Mumbai.
