Leader of the Opposition V.D. Satheesan has demanded a CBI probe into the K-FON project, which according to him had failed to take off despite spending huge amounts from the coffer.
The Kerala government had introduced the project to provide a “reliable, secure and scalable intranet connecting all government offices, educational institutions and hospitals,” according to the company website.
Mr. Satheesan said the project failed to take off as planned even after spending ₹1,500 crore. The government allowed the companies, which had close links with those in power, to plunder the State through the project, he alleged.
