PHE Scandal
The official enquiry committee which is presently digging into the multi-crore PHE scandal in Jowai, has sought extension of time till November 15.
This was stated by Mr N Rynjah, who is heading the enquiry committee.
He told this reporter that some important papers were not made available to the Committee, and this was one of the major reasons for the delay in compiling the report. He said some of the papers were with political who were pursuing their own investigations.
Mr Rynjah hoped that subject to availability of all papers, there would be no need for further extension of time.
The Committee which was set up by the State Govt in May this year, was to have submitted its findings within three months. The deadline was subsequently extended upto September 17. The Committee is to conduct through probe into the circumstances leading to the racket, and also to fix responsibility on those who are primarily responsible.
