Rajasthan Agriculture Minister Kirodi Lal Meena has written a letter to Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma, alleging irregularities in a housing project being handled by a department that comes under the Chief Minister.
In a letter to the Chief Minister, Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) leader Meena has alleged that a potential loss of Rs 1,146 crore to the exchequer, in a multi-storey housing project which is been carried forward by the state’s General Administration Department (GAD) without Cabinet approval, reported The Indian Express.
Meena has said the way the project at Old MREC Campus in Jaipur's Gandhinagar is being planned will result in a loss of Rs 1,146 crore to the state government. The four of the six multi-storey buildings are slated to be used for government housing, two are to be sold to private individuals.
Urging the Chief Minister to stop the project, the minister has claimed that the area was valued at Rs 277 crore five years ago and a new assessment has put its value at Rs 218 crore.
Kirodi Lal Meena’s accusations comes a month after the minister had raised concerns about land being sold under the Eastern Rajasthan Canal Project and had also hinted at corruption, after which the Chief Minister took action.
The BJP had won 24 out of 25 seats in Rajasthan in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls, with the lone remaining seat also going to an NDA ally.
