Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee (NPCC) on Thursday claimed that former CLP leader and incumbent PHED minister, Tokheho Yepthomi, was alleged to have misused the official letter pad of the CLP leader while writing to the director of Food & Civil Supplies on July 30, 2016.
In a press release, NPCC media cell alleged that Tokheho, asking the director of food & civil supplies to allot 150 bags of rice to a particular individual for public distribution on cash payment was “an abuse of power that deprives the intended beneficiaries getting their due share”.
NPCC further said the chief minister, T.R. Zeliang, who is also holding the portfolio of Food & Civil Supplies, was therefore answerable for the conduct of his ministers.
NPCC said Tokheho was now “in NPF party for the loaves and fishes of office after deserting the INC party that gave him enough opportunities.”
NPCC said that using the letter pad of the CLP leader “even after betraying and abandoning” the Congress party was not acceptable.
In this regard, the Congress party has demanded apology to all Congress men and women.
