Last Updated 17 March 2017, 20:25 IST

Congress MLC Srikanth Ghotekar has said that the Anna Bhagya scheme has turned into Kallara Bhagya (for thieves).

During question hour in the Legislative Council on Friday, the MLC said in certain taluks in Karwar district, rice and dal meant for the midday meal scheme are being looted. On February 22, rice and dal meant for the Akshara Dasoha scheme were about to be looted between Haliyal and Dandeli. The vehicle, which was carrying the stock, was diverted for this purpose. The locals noticed this and brought it to the attention of the tahsildar, he said.

However, Primary and Secondary Education Minister Tanveer Sait argued that the vehicle had a breakdown. However, the MLC insisted that action should be taken against those involved in the “theft”.
