Imphal, November 24:
A sum of Rs 1,94,987 released under National Slum Development Programme (NSDP) for development of Oinam Nagar Panchayat in Bishnupur district has been allegedly withdrawn fraudulently from the bank.
According to a statement jointly signed by six councillors of the Naga Panchayat and made available to the press today, the amount was withdrawn by former Chairperson Nameirakpam Indubushan in connivance with the then executive officer and SDC Oinam Th Raghumani from UBI, Paona Bazar on June 17 this year.
The matter came to light during investigation after the MAHUD asked for submitting utilisation certificate of the work done, the joint statement said, adding that none of the councillors of the Panchayat were consulted at the time of withdrawing the fund.
