BJP slams Maha Vikas Aghadi move to probe Jalyukta Shivar Yojana

The opposition state Bharatiya Janata Party slammed the decision of the Maha Vikas Aghadi government to set up a committee for an open probe into former Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis' pet scheme Jalyukta Shivar Yojana (JSY), here on Wednesday. Leader of Opposition (Council) Pravin Darekar said the MVA government is making a pathetic attempt to declare the JSY scheme a failure. "However, the probe with mala fide intentions will not make any difference," Darekar remarked, while other leaders termed the MVA move as a witch-hunting to cover up its own failure. Nearly two months after it announced its plans for probing the JSY, the state on Tuesday notified a four-member committee headed by former Additional Chief Secretary Vijay Kumar to conduct the open inquiry into alleged scams in the scheme. Following strong observations by the Comptroller & Auditor General (CAG) report, the state government on October 14 ordered the probe, and the panel will submit its findings in six months besides a status every month.
