Lokayukta Orders Inquiry into Bhu Bharathi Fraud

Lokayukta Orders Inquiry into Bhu Bharathi Fraud

A routine check by the Mandal Revenue Officer (MRO) in Jangaon found a big financial fraud.

Someone took money meant for the government but didn't pay it.

They changed the payment records to hide what they did.

The police are now investigating to find out who did it and how.

The fraud happened when people were registering land, and the full amount wasn't paid to the government.

Instead, only a small part was paid, and the rest was stolen.

The police think at least six people might be involved, including some government employees.

The Lokayukta has ordered an inquiry into these irregularities, warning that those involved will face action.

The government has been asked to submit a report on the matter.
