A social worker has filed a complaint with Karnataka Lokayukta, accusing previous BJP and current Congress governments of allegedly taking kickbacks worth 25 crore in the Department of Labour procuring 7,000 laptops meant for labourers’ children. Each laptop was bought at a cost of ₹71,046 from the supplier. The cost is almost double compared to the open market.
