New Delhi, Jan 13 (PTI) Four senior army officers involved in a land scam in Darjeeling will face "some disciplinary and administrative action" that will be taken by the Army chief, Defence Minister A K Antony said today.
The Army had yesterday initiated disciplinary action against Lt Gen P K Rath that may lead to a court martial and started administrative action that could result in dismissal of Military Secretary Lt Gen Avadesh Prakash, 11 Corps Commander Ramesh Halgali and Maj Gen P Sen for their role in the sale of a 70-acre civilian land adjacent to Sukna military station near Darjeeling.
Antony said the Defence Ministry had received a report from Army Chief Deepak Kapoor in this regard only last night and, therefore, it was "too early" for him to comment on the action to be taken against the Generals.
