A delegation from Haryana, led by Sports Minister Anil Vij, for the Rio Olympics has run into controversy with questions being raised on the nearly Rs 1 crore being spent on the trip.
Vij, and his delegation comprising 6-7 members, will leave for Rio de Janerio on Saturday. The delegation includes two BJP legislators, Gian Chand Gupta and Vijay Pal, two senior bureaucrats, Additional Chief Secretary K.K. Khandelwal and Jagdeep Singh, and other officials.
Official sources said that the expenses to be incurred on the delegation’s trip would be up to Rs 1 crore.
The minister, on Friday, defended the trip saying that a number of players in the Indian contingent to the Rio Olympics were from Haryana and the delegation was going to cheer for them. The delegation will return after participating in the closing ceremony of the Rio Olympics.
