Bernard Marak, who is a BJP member of the Garo Hills Autonomous District Council (GHADC) in Meghalaya said that the “ghost projects” came to light following RTIs filed in Tura Municipal Board.
The Meghalaya BJP leader further game examples to back his allegations.
“…graveyard is used by Kongbe Ading and Ranggira locality so both the sanctions were made for the same shed in one lady’s name. But when inspected, only shed that was found in that graveyard was the one constructed by public through general contribution and not by MPLADS or SUWP,” the Meghalaya BJP leader said.
He also informed that the graveyard that belongs to Kongbe Ading, do not fall under the Tura Municipal Board.
