Several payments released for same works at Panchayat Parori RDD comes under scanner in Rajouri 9/9/2020 12:23:17 AM Ankit Kessar Early Times Report Rajouri, Sept 8: The Rural Development Department has come under scanner for its alleged corrupt practices. According to the details available with Early Times the department has made several payments for the same work, which were carried out in Panchayat Parori of Sub Division Kotranka of Rajouri district. Sources told this newspaper that local panchayat representatives along with RDD officials have been allegedly plundering public money in the name of development. They said that major frauds have been committed under Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM) wherein it has been observed that three payments were released from different heads for a bathroom. “The department released payments for a bathroom under SBM and then from CDF of the local legislator and later the payment was released under 14th FC,” they said. They further maintained that similarly many illegal payments were released for construction of Harvesting Tank by showing septic tanks as Harvesting Tanks. It has been alleged that the department erected boards near septic tanks in the area and clicked photos for proof and payments were cleared. Pertinently, a case had come to fore in the recent past wherein a local resident had constructed a portion of road which was crossing from his house from his own expenses but to utter shock, later it was disclosed that someone had clicked the photographs of the road and got the payment cleared from the department. There are several works in panchayat, where fake boards have been raised and payments have been cleared against them. House plinths were shown as protection walls by the department. ACD Rajouri Sushil Khajuria when contacted, said that he would send a team to the panchayats to verify the allegations and if anything wrong was found, the strict action will be taken against culprits.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
