A big scam has been exposed in the Border Roads Organization (BRO), which strengthens the infrastructure in the border areas of the country. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has launched a major nationwide operation against massive misuse of BRO funds. On the basis of four criminal cases registered in this case, the investigating agency has simultaneously conducted raids at 26 different locations in 11 states and union territories.

CBI raided these 11 states

This search operation of CBI was conducted in a large part of the country. Teams of the investigating agency have simultaneously conducted raids in Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Haryana, Uttarakhand, Maharashtra, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh. According to officials, during this intensive search operation, many important and confidential documents as well as a huge amount of digital evidence have been recovered, which are being examined closely.

Big game in ‘Project Vijayak’ and ‘Yoga’ in Ladakh

Actually, this entire matter is related to the important ‘Project Vijayak’ and ‘Project Yojak’ of BRO being run in the Union Territory of Ladakh. It is alleged that there was huge rigging in the deployment of laborers under these projects. By showing fake entries of laborers on paper, payment worth crores of rupees was withdrawn in their name and the government treasury was defrauded heavily.

4 FIRs registered on the complaint of Defense Ministry

This major fraud was revealed when the ‘Technical Board of Officers’ of BRO conducted an internal investigation into the matter. Large scale financial irregularities were found in this departmental inquiry. After this, seeing the seriousness of the matter, the Ministry of Defense directly filed a criminal complaint. On the basis of this complaint, CBI has started its action swiftly by registering four separate FIRs.

Investigation is being done in these serious sections

According to sources, this is not just a case of negligence but a well-planned criminal conspiracy. Cases have been registered against the accused under serious sections like misappropriation of government funds, cheating, forgery, criminal breach of trust, criminal misconduct and bribery. CBI is now trying to find out which BRO officers and contractors are involved in this entire syndicate. Many major arrests are expected in this case in the coming days.
