He stated that altogether 272 verified cadres were supposed to get the rehabilitation benefit.
“But now we are in dark as we don’t know how many cadres have been given Rs 1.5 lakh each as rehabilitation package,” he said and added that the names of many officers and cadres of the group were not found in the list.
