Thoubal, May 23 2014 :
The District Vigilance Commitee Chandel district has demanded CBI enquiry into the alleged encashment of Rs 58, 14,000 from SBI Chandel.
The committee in a statement jointly issued by its President BD Betha Anal and Vice-President BJP Chandel, Tongsin Konal Anal also demanded clarification from the ADC Chairman.
The statement said that the Chairman had drawn out the amount via cheque No 266708 dated 9/5/2014 from the joint account No 11831653089 of SBI Chandel without issuing any work order to work agency by diverting the work out of the permitted works under 13th Finance Commission Award and 13th Approved Action Plan of ADC, Chandel.
It further alleged that the amount was encashed three days before the Treasury passed the sanction order on May 15 .
It further alleged that the Executive Members of ADC CDL in its meeting held on May 8 resolved to withdraw the said fund at one time without work order and tender process which according to the DVC is a violation of the strict instruction to use the fund with conformity of the 13th Finance Commission recommendation.
The committee drew the attention of the Governor of Manipur to look into the matter seriously and take necessary action against the Chairman.
