It is reported that Revanth Reddy has already discussed this matter with the officials of the investigation agency. The government feels that there has been massive corruption in the works undertaken while the Mission Bhagiratha scheme has been implemented by spending around Rs. 40 thousand crores.
It is suspected that irregularities have taken place in works worth around Rs. 6 thousand crores. Related sources said that the government has decided to conduct a V&E investigation in the wake of complaints about taking bills without doing the work, registering the work done as new, showing that the equipment was purchased without purchase, and discarding the purchased equipment without using it.

It is reported that Chief Minister Revanth Reddy has instructed the officials to conduct a field-level investigation in a village of the Mandal to clear the allegations and the concerned minister has also discussed the matter with the vigilance officials. Related sources said that the Vigilance investigation is likely to start soon in this context.
It is learned that the proposal to set up a committee to find out the facts about how many groups across the state have received drinking water under this scheme was discussed in the recent meeting of the Council of Ministers.

The previous KCR/BRS government announced that it has implemented the Mission Bhagiratha scheme 100 percent, thereby providing safe drinking water to every household in the state. Due to this, the situation of getting funds under the Central government scheme ‘Jal Jeevan Mission’ has gone. Many areas and families in the state do not have access to protected fresh water at the field level.
On the other hand, towns and cities are expanding. Protected fresh water should be provided to those areas. In this context, the opinion expressed in the meeting of the Council of Ministers is that the correct decision is to make a committee to know the actual situation. It is reported that the leaders said that central funds can be obtained if a report is made on the actual situation. (Maxim News)
