A scam in a centrally sponsored scheme has reportedly surfaced in the state with the All Arunachal Contractor Welfare Association today alleging a Rs 1,000 crore scandal in Indira Awas Yojana being implemented by the department of Rural Development.
The Association has drawn the attention of the Chief Secretary, urging him to take necessary steps immediately.
"The procurement of CGI sheets under IAY was made by violating the laid down norms since the implementation of the scheme," AACWA said in a statement adding, "Works were awarded to the firms without any credentials and the whole implementation was done on political considerations and monetary gain."
The AACWA also called for taking necessary action on the state project director of Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan for not reportedly following the codal formalities by inviting NIT and quotations for the supply of school uniforms in government-run schools.
