The State Government last week set up a two-member commission to probe the snooping scandal, which relates to alleged surveillance on a young woman at the behest of Modi's close political aide Amit Shah, a former junior Home Minister.
Terming the panel, headed by a retired Gujarat High Court Judge, as an “eyewash”, Gujarat Congress had dubbed it as “Save Modi Commission”.
According to the memorandum, the surveillance saga and suspension of IAS officer Pradeep Sharma, who has alleged victimisation by the BJP Government for knowing about “intimacy” shared by Modi with the architect, should be investigated in an independent manner.
Benefits received by the woman and her family members in form of State Government contracts should also be brought under the ambit of independent probe, it said.
Two investigative news portals had claimed on November 15 that Shah had ordered illegal surveillance of the woman at the behest of one “Saheb” in 2009.
