Imphal, August 22:
The Kachai Atungtang Youth Development Society, Kachai, Ukhrul district has cast slur of discrepancy and non-maintenance of quality while executing Swajaldhara Project in Kachai village.
In a representation submitted to the Director of Vigilance Dept, the Society observed that the materials used for the project are all rejects and of very poor quality.
In addition to not using metal pipes, the reservoir tanks are much smaller than the actual size prescribed by the Project.
On the other hand, a huge amount of money has already been withdrawn for this work without proper supervision and verification of the work executed, thereby cheating the villagers in the most blatant manner.
Further alleging that funds meant for various development programmes of the village have been siphoned off by some Government officials of the district on several occasions, the Society asked for maintaining transparency in the execution of all development programmes.
Highlighting all these discrepancies and irregularities, it demanded that all those involved in the implementation Project in Kachai village should be booked under law and necessary action must be initiated.
The Society also sought intervention of the Vigilance Director to rectify the irregularities and to redress the wrongdoings.
