Early Times Report
JAMMU, May 16: Accusing each other of corruption, two politicians from rival political parties, both of whom are elected representatives and hold prominent positions at the Srinagar Municipal Corporation have been abusing each other in public gaze including the social media.
Interestingly both have sought the intervention of the Raj Bhawan seeking probe into allegations of corruption against each other.
Accusing his senior at the SMC of exploiting the civic body for personal gains, the deputy while sharing official documents has said about the opponent: "His idea to defunct the actual committees which completed their tenure by 18-Jan-2022 are still the same as they don't yield him any personal benefit… This is ridicule; what would we expect from such 'leaders' who can go to any extent just to line his pocket. It's really disheartening pondering over his fishy matters."
The other person, who holds even bigger position at the civic body said: "Thief out on BAIL on multiple cases of fraud, embezzlement and being caught "red-handed" accepting bribes up to an amount of 1.5 crores in his bank account by @JKACB continues to sit on a public official chair and brazenly malign the administration."
Some corporators said the politician who talks about the J&K Anti Corruption Bureau himself faces a complaint of scam totaling to around Rs 45 Crore at the JK ACB alone.
"How can he forget that that he is the kingpin in multi crore scams right since the Covid when a central agency had started inquiry into the wrongdoings," said a delegation of corporators on the condition of anonymity.
Recently the elected body members had locked horns over the new parking fee in Srinagar. Prior to that, one of the elected representatives at the SMC enjoying a key chair had purportedly called a government official "gunda". The said politician had called himself "Maha Gunda" over a dispute linked to Kashmir Pandit property.
Despite repeated attempts the "warring factions" couldn't be contacted for comments. But a senior official confirmed about the infighting.
