Govt’s silence on ‘Udaipur Files’ raises suspicion, says LoP Tikaram Jully

Jaipur: Leader of Opposition Tikaram Jully, Friday, during his visit to Udaipur, questioned the state govt's silence over the 'Udaipur Files' controversy, alleging that crucial details were being deliberately suppressed and asking who was being protected.

Jully said that despite the police filing a chargesheet and confirming the video in question was authentic and not generated using artificial intelligence, authorities failed to disclose key identities. "Why are the names not being revealed? Under whose pressure are the police and administration shielding that face?" he asked, adding that the public deserved to know the identity of any influential individual allegedly involved.

Jully targeted the govt over alleged corruption in the procurement of tribal hostels, claiming that norms were flouted with direct purchases bypassing the tender process. He alleged that identical items were procured at varying prices across centres, raising concerns of irregularities. Jully noted that the issue was raised during the Assembly's budget session, but no concrete action followed, and demanded a high-level, impartial probe.

Highlighting challenges in tribal regions, Jully said there was a stark gap between the govt's development claims and ground realities. He pointed to declining school enrolment and underutilisation of funds meant for tribal welfare, warning that the lack of resources and administration would marginalise youth in these areas.
