Yesterday, a staff of an Assistant Registrar in the Co-operative Group Housing Societies at Parliament Street was allegedly caught taking a bribe following a complaint to the helpline. However, the assistant registrar fled from the spot.
"Whenever he is traced, he will be arrested," Arvind Kejriwal had said.
Delhi government yesterday had introduced 1031 — an easy to remember anti-corruption helpline number — replacing the eight-digit number launched two days back which received a whopping 23,500 calls.
The new helpline number — the first in the country — was announced by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal at a press conference.
On Wednesday, Kejriwal had introduced 011-27357169 as the first anti-corruption helpline.
Today, the helpline received 11,952 calls from 8 AM till 6.30 PM out of which 54 were just normal complaints and "around 20 cases as of now ripe for laying trap", sources said.
According to sources, there are 60 lines of the helpline and 30 officials supervise them and take calls.
