In Jhansi, Uttar Pradesh, a police constable named Rajat Singh has been dismissed from service due to his alleged involvement in an Indian Premier League (IPL) betting racket. Two women, Nisha Khan (33) and Yashasvi Dwivedi (24), were arrested during police raids, which uncovered valuables including yellow metal biscuits, coins, and ornaments valued at ₹1.5 crore (approximately $180,000 USD) along with ₹18.9 lakh (around $22,700 USD) in cash. The police investigation revealed that the betting operations had been ongoing for several months, with the arrested women admitting that Singh had brought the seized items to their flat shortly before the raid. The police are also pursuing additional suspects connected to the racket, including five other local residents. A case has been filed under various sections of the Gambling Act at the Sipri Bazaar police station, and further raids are being conducted to apprehend Singh and other absconding individuals.
