The Uttar Pradesh Congress has asked the Central government to investigate into the misappropriation of funds allotted for NREGA in Uttar Pradesh.
The UP Congress is also sending a complaint to the rural development ministry in this regard.
Talking to reporters here on Tuesday, Uttar Pradesh Congress president Rita Bahuguna Joshi said that an investigation into the massive tree plantation drive, undertaken by the Uttar Pradesh government in Bundelkhand this year, had revealed large scale corruption.
