House Panel summits report on Adarsh scam

 

New Delhi: The Parliament Panel submitted its detailed report on Adarsh Housing Society.  The report has bashed the Defence ministry and State Government for failures at all level leading to a scam in it.

Adarsh Housing Society was basically built for the welfare of serving and retired personnel of the Defence Services in the heart of Mumbai.

But top lawmakers, bureaucrats and military officers bend several rules to allot flats for themselves and their families in the property at artificially lower rates.

The PAC in its report said a group of top officials sabotage rules and regulation and took the ruse of welfare of war widows and children.

In its report the House panel said the wrongdoings had been carried out all through the process from allocation of land to getting NoC from the Army, getting permissions from Maharashtra Government, obtaining NoC from BEST and also getting clearances for residential development. The draft also blamed certain officials who used their position for their personal gain.

The PAC report stated that when the Defence Ministry was quizzed how clearance was given to the society, the ministry was informed that it was issued by the defence officials.

The panel warned the Govt not to commit further incidents in near future.
