Imphal, October 29 2016:
BJP Mayang Imphal Mandal has accused local MLA and Education Minister Dr Kh Ratankumar of swindling MLA Local Area Development Fund.
BJP Mayang Imphal Mandal president Irom Rabi said that they visited six places where different development programmes were taken up purportedly.
But the spot verification found that Rs 34 lakh were swindled without doing any work.
There is no children/orphan home at Mayang Imphal Konchak and no such home is found in the official list of Social Welfare Department, Rabi said.
He then asked as to how the compound wall of the non-existent children/orphan home was constructed with the MLA Local Area Development Fund.
No new community hall has been constructed near Lai Awang Soraren during the current term.
But it was said that its fences have been constructed.
He alleged that funds were swindled after re-naming different projects.
He also asked the Minister to give detailed account of the development projects and the places where they were executed.
Rabi added that BJP Mayang Imphal Mandal would launch a campaign so as to expose the alleged wrongdoings of the incumbent MLA.
