The inconclusive report of the probe committee constituted to investigate claims of corruption in nullah de-silting was released by the BMC on Wednesday. The report itself stated that the storm water drains department has not maintained records of silt transportation, quantity, way-bridge receipts, log sheets etc The committee has now demanded an extension of two months to probe the matter further.
After opposition corporators raised a storm over the alleged graft in BMC's nullah cleaning contracts given before monsoon, municipal commissioner Ajoy Mehta had constituted a committee on June 22 headed by deputy commissioner Prakash Patil to probe the matter. The committee was supposed to investigate whether there were any irregularities in the nullah-cleaning contracts and was supposed to file a report by June 30. The said report was submitted on Wednesday where the committee concluded that the duration of the probe was too short and therefore demanded an extension of two months.
