The LoP alleged that the state government uses this money for other uses than its core purpose.
In his letter, the BJP leader has urged the Union Minister to set up an inquiry into the matter. He also mentioned that the officers appointed for the probe should be the ones who are not influenced by the ruling party in West Bengal.
