While sustained investigations are going on into the alleged Common-wealth Games financial irregularities, the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) on Saturday claimed that it has not received any fresh complaints from the Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) regarding alleged irregularities in the Commonwealth Games since the mega event ended.

The CVC is one of the agencies probing into the alleged financial irregularities in Games-related projects completed by the MCD, Delhi Development Authority (DDA), New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) and the public works department (PWD), among others.
CVC sources claimed that they have sent 10 fresh complaints to the MCD and four to the Delhi government, asking them to investigate the irregularities. Denying this, MCD working committee chairman Jagdish Mamgain told the media on Saturday: “We have not received any fresh complaints from the CVC after the Commonwealth Games got over.”
“Before the Games, we received three complaints regarding officials tampering with the bid document relating to upgradation of street lights, covering of Sunehri and Kushak nullahs (drains) for constructing parking lots, and road underbridge at Prem Nagar railway crossing,” he added.
Mr Mamgain added that the report by the MCD on the three charges is ready and, as directed by the CVC, the corporation will submit its reports by October-end.
According to CVC sources, the commission has received 1,238 complaints this month, out of which 928 were sent to different state and Central government-run departments for necessary action.
