Cong demands SC monitored probe into KG basin scam allegedly involving PM Modi

Krishna-Godavari basin.

Gujarat Pradesh Congress Committee (GPCC) on Saturday held demonstrations and burnt effigies of prime minister Narendra Modi outside all the 33 district collectorates and eight mahanagarpalikas , demanding a Supreme Court monitored probe into what it calls Rs 20,000 crore scam in Krishna-Godavari basin involving Modi when he was chief minister of the state.

Stating that the scam was bigger than the 2G scam, state party spokesperson Manish Doshi said that the Modi regime in the state had given Gujarat state petroleum corporation’s (GSPC) 10 per cent stake amounting to Rs 20,000 crore in KG basin gas field to GeoGlobal Resources, a multinational company existing on paper, for nothing.
