"150-Crore Scam": Punjab AAP Government Finds Farm-Stubble Machines "Missing"

Chandigarh: Punjab's Aam Aadmi Party government has ordered an inquiry as more than 11,000 machines for handling crop stubble in the state "exist only on paper", which means "embezzlement of ₹ 150 crore of public money during the previous Congress government". Agriculture Minister Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal today said he'd ordered a field survey after receiving reports that the machines, for which the central government gave subsidy, "never reached the farmers". In this cross-check drive that covered the period from 2018 to this month — of the 90,422 machines that the government claimed to have bought and distributed — at least 11,275 (about 13 per cent) are not with the supposed beneficiaries. The AAP government has been in place since March.
