BJP today rapped the city government for “large scale” financial irregularities as pointed out by the just-released CAG report and said it will approach the Central Vigilance Commission and Delhi Lokayukta for appropriate action against those involved in “bunglings”.
Senior BJP leader V K Malhotra, quoting several observations of the report, claimed that the city government lost a whopping Rs 2,000 crore due to mismanagement, inefficiency and financial irregularities.
In its report for the fiscal ending March 2009, the auditor had pointed out that the city government had resorted to “avoidable and unfruitful” expenditure on several projects which were found unviable and failed in recovering around Rs 3,600 crore realisable revenue.
“The report has exposed the government’s poor financial management as well as corruption in almost all the departments.
