Cuttack: The Odisha Higher Education department on Wednesday ordered an inquiry into allegations of financial and administrative irregularities at Netaji Subash Memorial City College in Cuttack.
According to sources, former MLA Debashish Samantray levelled the allegations against principal in-charge S Deobhanj and a former head clerk Sunil Mishra.
Samantray alleged that government funds of Rs 7.5 lakh sanctioned for the development of science laboratories and procurement of lab equipment are being spent without the recommendation of the institution’s purchase committee.
He added that despite a directive by the department, employees of the college covered under the GIA order of 2017 and 2022 are not being provided their EPF.
