Congress has alleged that SIR has altered evidence related to a recent disaster.
Congress has accused the State Industrial Reconstruction (SIR) authority of tampering with evidence linked to a recent disaster. The claim was made during a press briefing by a senior Congress spokesperson.
According to the party, SIR officials allegedly modified documents that were intended to document the impact and response to the disaster. The spokesperson said that such alterations could undermine public trust and the integrity of disaster management.
SIR has not yet issued a formal response to the allegations. Congress has called for an independent inquiry to examine the evidence and the processes followed by the agency.
The incident has raised concerns about transparency and accountability in the handling of disaster-related data and the role of state agencies in safeguarding public information.
