Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) MLA and former Agriculture Department Minister Sudhakar Singh on Monday alleged corruption in the Agriculture Department in the implementation of agriculture road maps and demanded a probe.
He shared a letter he had written while heading the department on manipulation of funds on a large scale in Bihar Agriculture Road map scheme.
“While being the Agriculture Minister, I had written a letter [No. 280, dated 17-09-2022] and ordered departmental inquiry so that it can be known how much the farmers of Bihar benefitted after implementation of the three road maps and spending around ₹3.75 lakh crore on the projects in the last 15 years,” Mr. Singh said at his residence in Patna while addressing the media.
