KALAIGAON, July 5 - The Land Revenue department of the Bodoland Territorial Council (BTC) has suspended Nomal Chandra Daimari, who was working as a Latmondal in the Harisinga revenue circle, Tangla, after a video showed him allegedly taking a bribe.
A video surfaced recently where Daimari was allegedly seen taking a bribe of Rs 10,000 in the office premises, in a land allotment case. The video was released in the social media and news channels on June 27.
