CAG Flags Massive Accounting Lapses in Bihar Finances

CAG Flags Massive Accounting Lapses in Bihar Finances

Imagine the government is given money to build roads and schools, but they haven't shown where that money went.

The CAG, like a financial watchdog, found that billions of rupees in Bihar haven't been properly accounted for.

They haven't received documents (called UCs) that show the money was used for its intended purpose.

This makes it hard to know if the money was spent correctly, or if there were mistakes.

This has led to accusations of a scam, because the lack of transparency and missing paperwork is a problem.

The opposition has used these findings to criticize the current government.
