The forum’s president, Ramesh NR, submitted the complaint on Tuesday, urging the ED to investigate the misuse of funds allocated between 2013 and the 2023-24 financial year.
The accused are alleged to have siphoned off the money intended for crucial road development works across Bengaluru.
Speaking to the media, Ramesh stated, “This is a staggering amount of public money, and there needs to be accountability. The condition of Bengaluru’s roads speaks volumes about the misuse of these funds. We demand a thorough investigation to bring the culprits to justice.”
More details awaited.
