The password leak scam at the Kozhikode Corporation has led to severe protests inside and outside the office, putting the authorities under pressure to conduct a proper inquiry into the matter.
The corporation officials carried out a protest inside the office demanding that the suspension of four officials in the case be revoked. They also alleged that the officials were made scapegoats.
“We had pointed out the problems in Sanchaya software several times. But the Secretary refused to find a solution. Now the authorities are trying to save the real culprits by putting the blame on four officials,” alleged Anil Kumar T., district president of the Kerala Municipal and Corporation Staff Union (KMCSU).
