The government has reportedly given sanction for a preliminary inquiry by the Vigilance and Anti Corruption Bureau (VACB) against Leader of Opposition V.D. Satheesan in connection with the Punarjani scheme in his constituency Paravur.
A case will be registered only if the VACB inquiry finds any indication of a cognisable offence.
Mr. Satheesan is accused of violating the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act in soliciting funds from abroad for building houses for flood victims.
