Jaipur: Army's Northern Commander Lt Gen Parnaik allegedly produced faked documents to get free land from Rajasthan government, according to the reports.
According to the reports by India Today, Lt General Kaiwalya Trivikram Parnaik, who currently heads the Udhampur-based Northern Command, incorrectly indicated Rajasthan as his state of domicile to obtain 25 bighas of agricultural land (roughly 12 acres) in Mohangarh village, Jaisalmer.
Moreover, top army officials contacted by Mail Today said they were unable to comment on the case because they were not informed of the nature of the controversy.
House number 3/K/6 Jawahar Nagar, Jaipur, which Lt Gen Parnaik listed as his own address
He received the land for being awarded a Yudh Seva Medal (YSM) for commanding a brigade during Operation Parakram in 2002. In 2009, however, he furnished a false address in Jaipur to take possession of the land long after his family had moved out of the state.
Lt-Gen Parnaik was quoted as saying by India Today that he had entered the wrong address "by mistake". General Parnaik said he was a domicile of the state and that army records mentioned Chittorgarh as his residence. He shifted to House No 3/KHA/6 Jawahar Nagar, Jaipur, in 1984. He was a domicile of Rajasthan when he entered service in 1972 and when he received the YSM in 2003, he said.

JAIPUR: In a case of rash driving, a 24-year-old man engaged in speed check work for the Jaipur Marathon was crushed to death early on Sunday after being hit by an Audi on the Jawahar Lal Nehru Marg near Clarks Amber hotel.
Police suspected that the driver of the Audi, who owns a heritage property on MD road, was in an inebriated state. He was arrested and released on bail, after almost seven hours of custody. "Prima facie he appeared to be under the influence of alcohol. Thus, we had also sent him for medical examination," a police official said.
According to the cops, the accident took place at 5.30am on Sunday when the Audi vehicle hit an Innova taking a U-turn on JLN Marg. While the driver of the Innova immediately fled the scene, the drive of the luxury sedan lost control over and hit the youth sitting on the corner of the road.
"The accused, identified as Trivikram Singh, was coming from airport. Onlookers told us that the collision was so nasty that the youth got trapped under the wheels and was dragged for almost 100 metres," said Badri Lal Rao, circle inspector.
The seriously injured youth was rushed to the Sawai Man Singh (SMS) hospital where he succumbed due to multiple injuries. Police have ordered a post mortem of the youth who hails from a village in Alwar.
Soon after the accident, the Chetak vehicle parked nearby reached the spot and arrested the accused. "He remained in custody for almost 7 hours. A case under section 304-A (causing death due to negligence) of Indian Penal Code (IPC) was also been lodged against him," he added.
This is the second such incident when a person standing on the road has died in an accident in the last few days. Senior IAS officer V S Singh was killed in a road accident in Jaipur in December. Similarly, On December 15, 2008, Vijit Singh, 45-year-old grandson of late Maharaja Sawai Man Singh II was arrested, allegedly in a case of hit-and-run, in which a girl student from Kota, Babita Choudhary, was killed and three others were injured.
