85 lakh flowers pots placed in Dense Forest of Shimla smacks of graft

Shimla, Oct 3 (UNI) CPI(M) blamed Jai Ram Thakur Government and ruling Shimla Municipal Corporation to make Shimla smart city project (SCP) a den of corruption alleging that Rs 85 lakh flowers pots were placed in deep rooted forest in Shimla town without studying their survival rate and ignoring forestry science.
This was alleged by the former Deputy Mayor Mr Tekinder Singh Panwar and party legal cell convenor Advocate Sanjeev Bhushan at a press conference held here Monday.
Bhushan stated that the town was kept out of the Smartcity project by former Virbhadra Singh government when CPI(M) ruled the Shimla MC from 2012 to 2017. It was he who pleaded before the High court of Himachal Pradesh that eminent towns which have been erstwhile British capital were not included in the project thus fudging the data.
