JAMMU, July 15: JKNPP Chairman and former minister Harsh Dev Singh has asked the Government to act at least against huge scams unravelled by Comptroller and Auditor General of India.
“With consecutive reports of CAG indicating scams of gargantuan proportions having been committed in J&K during the past few years, it is shocking to note the culprits being granted immunity from any kind of probe or punishment,” he said in a statement.
Harsh Dev divulged that the recently released CAG report for 2018-19 had pointed towards a suspected seem of Rs 8,000 crore likely to have been committed during 2017 and 2018. “The CAG report has categorically castigated Education Deptt, Municipal Corporations of Jammu and Srinagar and SKUAST for the financial irregularities, which regretfully had failed to invite due attention of the powers that be,” said.
Likewise, he added, the CAG report had revealed fudging of more than 10,000 crore in receipts and expenditure but the Government failed to act in view of BJP being a partner in the then Govt.
