UDF and LDF leaders have denied BJP’s claim that they made illegal payments to Calicut Metro Rail Limited (CMRL), asserting that all transactions were lawful and transparent.
UDF and LDF leaders have publicly denied the BJP’s allegation that they paid illegally to Calicut Metro Rail Limited (CMRL). The claim was first raised by BJP officials in a press briefing earlier this week.
The opposition parties stated that no such payments were made and that all financial dealings with CMRL were conducted through proper channels and documented in official records.
BJP had suggested that the payments were part of a political arrangement to secure support for the metro project. Both UDF and LDF leaders dismissed these allegations as baseless and politically motivated.
They urged a thorough investigation into the matter and pledged full cooperation with authorities to clear any misunderstandings.
