It was alleged in complaint that the structure was constructed at the cost of Rs. 1.5 crores in the year 2005 and within two years of its construction, the structure washed away. The verification has revealed that technical sanction for the work was not accorded by the competent authority.

Further the conceptual plan of the structure constructed has not been found satisfactorily implemented on the ground by field Engineers, even the payments have been found drawn Rs.88,82,141/- instead of allotted amount of Rs.65 lacs only. All the above mentioned factors have contributed in the washing away of causeway, resulting in loss to state exchequer by the then Executive Engineer PWD, R&B Division No. 1, Jammu and others whosesoever found involved during the course of investigation.
