On perusal of the FIR it appears that total amount of Rs.15 lakhs were sanctioned by the government for the scheme and Rs.1,50,000/- were collected from the villagers as the public contribution. The actual work had been done to the tune of Rs.6,14,430/- and there is : 2 : no account for the balance amount. The statement of the present Chairman of Water committee is recorded.
