<h1>Two former ministers charged under Prevention of Corruption Act for alleged corruption in health projects worth Rs 5,590 crore</h1> The Anti-Corruption Branch registered a case against two former ministers under the Prevention of Corruption Act regarding alleged corruption in health infrastructure projects worth Rs 5,590 crore. The case involves 24 hospital projects sanctioned in 2018-19 that faced significant delays and cost overruns. Specific allegations include a hospital project with costs escalating from Rs 488 crore to Rs 1,135 crore, and an incomplete project that exceeded 100 percent cost escalation. The political party denied charges, arguing the projects were sanctioned before one minister assumed office and questioned why the investigation details remain confidential while selective information is leaked to media.
