KTR demands independent probe into Rs 10,000-crore scam in Singareni

A senior opposition leader in Telangana has demanded an independent investigation into an alleged Rs 10,000-crore scam involving the Singareni Collieries Company Limited.

The full story

Everything you need to know about this case, in one place.

The allegations include serious irregularities related to Naini coal block tenders, site visit certificates, machinery procurement, and opencast mine contracts. The opposition leader claimed that funds amounting to Rs 6,317 crore were diverted across two financial years and approximately 40 lakh metric tonnes of coal went missing. Furthermore, it was alleged that the state government owes nearly Rs 60,000 crore to the company, which has reportedly affected operations and equipment maintenance.

The opposition party has warned of intensifying agitations, including laying siege to the residences of ruling party legislators and ministers, if demands are not met. These demands include the immediate clearance of outstanding dues, the release of workers' profit shares and bonuses, and the speedy resolution of employee welfare issues. The leader also called upon both state and central authorities to protect the public sector enterprise from alleged privatisation attempts.
