The Gujarat Congress accused the state government of corruption in land allocation at two GIDC estates in Bharuch, claiming a scam worth Rs 2,000 crore. Congress leader Shaktisinh Gohil demanded an explanation from the BJP government, alleging plots were allotted at low rates without public auction, causing a massive loss to the state exchequer. The government refuted the allegations, stating the decision to reverse the estates' saturation status was made after industry bodies represented adequate unsold land, ensuring a transparent process in land allocation.
