A general meeting of Puna Village Fruit and Vegetable Cooperative Society will be held on 31st July in Punagam Saroli Wadi. In this meeting, there is a possibility that there is a scam of selling bananas for four crore rupees.
It was revealed that a scam of 4 crores was committed by the former president and manager of the organization. Especially in the audit report of the institute, the audit report of the district registrar and the investigation report of 86, it has been revealed that a scam of crores has been done. The organization’s deposit was used to pay high prices to farmers by selling bananas cheaply to traders. Apart from this, the subsidy given on banana tissue was also given wrongly. When the traders were arbitrarily sold the borrowed goods. Also, 111 truckloads of bananas were sold to a local trader by raising false invoices that they were sold to a Mumbai trader. By violating the rules of the cooperative society, the former president mismanaged and caused a loss of more than 4 crores to the organization.
Shailesh Patel, president of Pune Fruit and Vegetable Association, says, ‘The allegations leveled against the former president have not been removed by the current board, based on the internal audit report of the organization of his time, the district registrar’s report and the investigation report of 86. I have also been accused of taking subsidy. But I have not taken subsidy from the institute till now.’
