Mantri seeks vigilance probe into funds misuse
TNN, Feb 20, 2011, 12.27am IST
HYDERABAD: Minister for handlooms and small scale industries P Shankar
Rao said on Saturday that funds issued by the SC/ST finance
corporation were misused to the extent of Rs 100 crore. The minister
has decided to write to the vigilance department to take up inquiry on
the issue.
Talking to reporters, Shankar Rao said that the subsidy meant to
benefit the SC/ST community was taken away by the upper caste people.
The minister said during the review with the officials, it had come to
his notice that funds to the tune of Rs 70 crore to Rs 100 crore were
misused. "I will write to the vigilance and enforcement department to
find out the officials responsible for misuse," said Shankar Rao. The
department would inquire the facts since the last ten years, he added.
Apart from the inquiry, the officials from now onwards will inspect
the small scale units once in every three months and would submit a
report to the government, said Shankar Rao.
