Congress Alleges Rs 30,000 Crore Land Scam in Uttarakhand
Imagine a piece of beautiful land that the government spent money to fix up.
Then, they rented it out to a company for a very low price.
The Congress party is saying this is unfair and could be a huge scam.
They think the land, which is in a special place, is worth a lot of money, but the company is only paying a little bit to use it.
The Congress wants a special investigation to look into whether the rules were broken and if the land deal was done correctly.
The BJP, the current government, says everything was done fairly.
Congress alleges a Rs 30,000 crore land scam in Uttarakhand.
The land in question is 142 acres of George Everest Estate.
The land was leased to a company linked to Ramdev's aide for Rs 1 crore annually.
Congress demands a CBI probe supervised by the high court.
The BJP defends the land allocation process.
