Poonch, Feb 24: Assistant Development Commissioner (ADC) Basharat Ahmed has directed BDO, Mendhar, Tariq Aziz to submit him the record of government cement given to contractors in the district for development works under MGNREGA, according to sources.
The panchayat members and locals had locked the government cement store a few days back and protested against the alleged involvement of BDO Tariq Aziz in allotting government cement to a 'select' group of contractors while other contractors were being no cement, official sources alleged. The ADC had asked the BDO to submit him the record of government cement distributed to contractors of the area for construction of development works under MGNREGA, sources said, adding the BDO was earlier directed by the ADC to allot cement panchayat-wise in the area. Meanwhile, local NC workers staged a protest, demanding inquiry into the alleged episode by the RDD director and punish the guilty, if any. |
