During this April in peak summer, AP CM Nara Chandrababu Naidu introduced a new ‘buttermilk for poor’ scheme to quench the thirst of several villages in the East and West Godavari districts by setting up more than 600 free buttermilk, ORS and water stalls.
For this purpose, Babu even allotted 3 crore budget. Now, latest reports reveal that the local MROs who were entrusted with the job of distributing free buttermilk and water packets have done a major scam to the tune of 3 crores.The latest reports revel that these officers provided free buttermilk and water for only a couple of days but provided bills for more than 20 days and withdrew 1 crore of cash already and are planning their moves to withdraw 2 more crores.
The audacity out these officers was such that they only provided water but submitted bills for buttermilk. There have been increasing complaints that even the higher officials are not taking stringent action against the officials who are involved in the scam.
