Revanth orders probe into ORR tender irregularity

Deccan Chronicle  

Hyderabad: Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy on Wednesday ordered a comprehensive probe into the alleged irregularities in awarding tenders for the Outer Ring Road to IRB Infra, done by the previous BRS government in May 2023, and said a decision will be taken soon to hand over the case to the CBI or another Central investigation agency. In the review meeting, HMDA officials apprised Revanth Reddy that before toll tenders were called, revenue from ORR was `600 crore per year, following which the Chief Minister questioned officials why they had finalised a tender for “meagre” `7,800 crore given that `18,000 crore revenue was estimated for a 30-year period. In May 2023, Revanth Reddy, the TPCC chief, accused the BRS government of resorting to huge corruption in ORR toll tenders. Then MA&UD special chief secretary and HMDA commissioner Arvind Kumar issued legal notices to Revanth Reddy in May 2023 for levelling corruption charges against him, following which Revanth Reddy had warned Arvind Kumar to withdraw legal notices and accused him of acting as a politician and not as an IAS officer.
