Former Indian cricket team captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been served a notice by the Jharkhand State Housing Board over alleged commercial use of his residential plot in Ranchi.
According to the notice, a pathology lab is allegedly operating from the property allotted to Dhoni for residential purposes.
The board has initiated a probe into claims that the plot (H/10A) is being used in violation of allotment rules.
The housing board has asked Dhoni to present his response, calling it a final opportunity to clarify his position. It has also warned that failure to respond could lead to a recommendation for cancellation of the allotment.
Dhoni was allotted the residential plot in 2006 during the tenure of the then Jharkhand government.
The controversy surfaced after reports that a lab under the name “Neuberg Supratech” is functioning from the premises.
Dhoni is yet to respond on the matter.
