The details of complaints of alleged corruption received through 'complaint boxes', installed on the premises of Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan's office, cannot be shared as it may not serve larger public interest, the state government has said in reply to an RTI query.

Anti-corruption activist Ajay Dubey had filed the RTI application, seeking details of such complaints received by the Chief Minister's Office (CMO) between 2012 and 2018, and action taken.

He had also requested for a copy of any order issued on the complaints of alleged corruption.

In its reply, the CMO said the applicant had sought detailed information.
