Delhi Govt Orders Probe into Barapullah Corridor Irregularities
The Delhi government is investigating the Barapullah Phase-3 flyover project.
They suspect problems and are looking into why it took so long and cost so much money.
The government says the previous leaders didn't handle things well, leading to extra payments to the company building the road.
The flyover is almost done, but the government wants to know if anything wrong happened during the project and why it was delayed.
Delhi government ordered an ACB probe into alleged irregularities in the Barapullah Phase-3 elevated corridor.
The inquiry was ordered after an Expenditure Finance Committee (EFC) meeting headed by Chief Minister Rekha Gupta.
The government alleges the project was delayed and the contractor received Rs 175 crore.
The elevated road, started in 2015, is 87% complete with an original cost of Rs 1260.63 crore.
The government criticized the previous AAP government for actions related to the project's delays and payments.
