Kalmadi had pre-decided TRS: Shunglu
In the fresh findings of irregularities related with the CWG Games, the Shunglu committee has now sent another report to the PMO stating that in various meetings before awarding the TSR contract, the OC officials had asserted that Swiss Timing would be awarded the contract for TSR. The Shunglu panel alleged that the OC officials had not considered tenders floated for awarding the contract.
In the new report, the Shunglu Panel had stated, “at various meetings prior to the award of the contract there are direct evidences to establish that some senior OC officials had asserted that Swiss Timing would be awarded the contract for TSR.” The Shunglu panel further alleged in the new report that the senior OC officials under the instructions of former OC chairman, Suresh Kalmadi had “pre-decided” to choose a Swiss firm for giving the Timing, Scoring and Result (TSR) project “prior to the award of contract”. The report further points out that the role of top OC officials is quite evident in manipulating tender process in the `141 crore-controversial contract.
