He further added, 23 crore has been also released to Minister PHED, Takam Pario under PMGSY project where as other contractors is still running for clearance of their pending bills. As per report all these public amounts are being uses for horse treading in the current political turmoil just to save his (Tuki’s) chair ‘claimed Phasang.
