Jammu: The Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) has slammed the Jammu and Kashmir government for purchasing a helicopter for VIP movement in a non-transparent manner. In its report for the year ended March 31, 2014, the CAG has pointed out that procurement of Augusta-109E Power was not carried out in a transparent manner by JKs Civil Aviation Department (CAD). The State government procured the helicopter in 2007 for Rs 20 crore.
In its observations, the auditors have questioned the bidding process carried out by the government for the procurement. "No formal Notice Inviting Tenders or Request for Proposals was issued either on open/global tender basis or even to three shortlisted vendors on limited tendering basis. In the absence of such a process, firm quotes were not obtained,"it states.
