Kohima: Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee (NPCC) president S I Jamir has alleged the present Democratic Aliance of Nagaland (DAN) Government of ‘mis-governance,’ and said the Opposition Congress had submitted several representations to the Government and Governor of Nagaland, but till date no action has been taken from their side.
Addressing a press conference at the Congress Bhavan at Kohima last evening, Mr Jamir said Congress MLA Sentichuba has lodged a complaint with the State Vigilance Commission (SVC) for thorough investigation on the proven facts of ‘forgery, cheating and fraudulent withdrawal of huge public funds’ under Nagaland Social Welfare Department by ‘three bogus firms and societies’ namely Khoyo Tribal Women Welfare Society, Midland Kohima, Reach Out Society, Duncan Bosti, Dimapur and M/s C K Enterprises.
Mr Jamir said huge amount sanctioned by the Centre to the State Welfare Department for implementation of Supplementary Nutrition Programme (SNP) was allotted to Khoyo Tribal Women Welfare Society and Reach Out Society.
‘But on investigation by members from the party, it is discovered that these two societies are not registered under Home Department. We found that the documents intentionally used by the two societies as genuine are actually forged and fake,” Mr Jamir stated.
He stated that its complaints are based purely on documentary evidences obtained from the State departments concerned through RTI. ‘We are aware that there are relevant sections under IPC and Anti- Corruption Act wherein stern actions has to be taken against such acts, when proven true,’ he said adding that its humble appeal is being made to the State Vigilance Commission for necessary probe and action deemed fit under the established law.
