The Opposition Congress on Friday accused the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of allegedly running a ‘tanker mafia’ in nine talukas with the State getting zero revenue from it.
On Friday, a group of Congress leaders and workers confronted the Water Resources Department (WRD) chief engineer and demanded an inquiry into the dubious tanker water supply trade in the State.
In a memorandum to the WRD chief, the Congress also demanded action against the tanker in Sancoale found carrying sewage.
It also charged that the State earns revenue from the water tanker business only in three talukas -- Pernem, Bardez and Tiswadi.
