Nagpur: A man has been accused of cheating another person by using the name of Nagpur MLC Sandeep Joshi to promise a Government job. MLC Joshi himself has lodged a complaint with the police after learning about the fraud.

The accused has been identified as Abhay Ghodvaidya, a resident of Adarsh Nagar, Dighori. The victim, Nilesh Khodatkar, alleged that Ghodvaidya promised to get his wife a job by claiming to have close ties with MLC Sandeep Joshi. For this, Ghodvaidya allegedly took Rs 4.5 lakh in cash from Khodatkar. Despite repeated requests, the promised job never materialised, and the money was not returned.
