Scores of top officials, including some bureaucrats have been facing corruption charges. Sources said that list contains the name of more than 60 officials, including KAS officers, Revenue officials, tehsildars, a few low rung officials from the administration, officials from PHE and R&B department.

These officials have also been asked to draw their three months salaries at one time," said an official.
