Panaji, June 22 (TIWN) Welcoming Chief Minister Pramod Sawant's open disclosure about bureaucrats demanding money for 'fixing' government jobs, state Congress President Girish Chodankar on Saturday questioned Sawant's silence about ministers accepting money for granting government jobs.
Addressing a press conference at party state headquarters in the city, Goa Pradesh Congress Committee (GPCC) President Girish Chodankar also alleged that while one hand the Chief Minister was warning bureaucrats of stern action if found indulging in corruption, on the other giving free hand to his cabinet colleagues and also endorsing illegal ventures. “As a party, the Congress appreciates Sawant’s warning to bureaucrats against corruption and seeking money for government jobs, but why is he not warning any of his ministers, because they are the ones who finally ‘sign off’ on appointments,” he said.
