The Defence Ministry has been hit by a fresh land scam with an in-house inquiry finding that about 70 “adhoc NoCs” were issued to private realtors flouting norms for defence land which included the Srinagar air base.
A CBI inquiry has been recommended by the Defence Ministry after it received the inquiry report submitted by its high-powered committee.
“There was some Defence Estates Organisation (DEO) gentlemen before who had issued some adhoc NOCs. The matter is for investigation... a high-powered Defence Ministry team had gone there to look into the matter,” IAF chief Air Chief Marshal N A K Browne told reporters here today.
The DEO there had issued around 70 NOCs to private realtors and the last four were given for the IAF land over which the Srinagar airfield is built and a CBI probe has been recommended by the Defence Ministry, sources said here.
