Probe sought into financial management of HKS

The United Democratic Front (UDF) council party of the Kozhikode Corporation has demanded a comprehensive investigation into the financial management of Haritha Karma Sena (HKS) in the Corporation.

In a press release, council party leader K.C. Shobhita and deputy leader K. Moideen Koya alleged that a health inspector who was transferred long ago was still controlling the HKS, and that several other health inspectors and executive committees that were in charge of the three HKS consortiums were behaving in an autocratic manner.

Ms. Shobhita said the democratic rights of HKS members were being thwarted, and that those who questioned it were being threatened. An accountant was working in the office without a formal appointment. A core committee which had no HKS representatives in it was in control of the bank account, the release said.
