5 lakhs by showing part of completed pipe line work done by the petitioner. The petitioner further claims that he has submitted a representation through his supervisor Mr.Devender Goud, dated 01.09.2015 to the respondents 2 and 4 stating that the 7th respondent in collusion with local officials pursuing the sanction of bill by showing part of the completed work done by them and is trying to misuse the Non-CRF grant released by the Local MLA and requested the respondents to take necessary action against him.
