POONCH, Nov 15: Alleging embezzlement of money on the name of usage of a Government building at Bus Stand Mendhar, people of the area have demanded a probe into the matter to fix the responsibility of negligence on concerned officials.
Locals from the area including traders said that there is a toilet complex at Mendhar Bus Stand which is being run by a private person without any tendering. “The said person charges money for usage of toilet complex and everyone has to pay but surprisingly the building has not been tendered to anyone,” said locals.
They further said that illegal charging is going on from last five years and everyone is suspicious that lakhs of rupees have been swallowed under the name of Government officials.
When contacted Tehsildar Mendhar, Dr Vikram Kumar, said that matter will be taken up with Sub Divisional Magistrate Mendhar and tendering of the building will be notified in consultation with local Panchayat leaders.
