- Digvijay warns Madhya Pradesh officials
Chronicle Reporter, Bhopal
Senior Congress leader and former Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh Digvijay Singh said on Tuesday that the officers of the Finance Department of the State Government should be alert considering the economic situation of the state. He has also said that the officials involved in the irregularities will be investigated if the Congress government is formed in the state.
Rajya Sabha MP Digvijay Singh has written in his post on social media While 137 schemes have been banned by the Finance Department, the government’s money is being diverted to BJP’s election agenda by withholding the budget of other important schemes unannounced. In this way, top officials of the Finance Department are postponing many important expenses for the present and are creating huge liabilities for the future. I have received information that for this senior officers are pressurizing the junior officers to write the desired note sheet.
Actual loan is much more than the figures disclosed by the Finance Department – Former CM Digvijay Singh said that I have information that many funds of many departments, which are maintained with the Finance Department, are being undisclosedly diverted by the Finance Department for the election agenda of the government. The money has been spent, due to which the actual debt of the state is much higher than the figure shown by the Finance Department. I want to warn the erring officials that after the Congress government comes to power, these activities will be thoroughly investigated and strict action will be taken against the erring officers, no matter their seniority.
