BJP Alleges ₹39,000 Crore Scam in Waste Management Deal, Demands Investigation
Bengaluru
The political temperature in Karnataka surged sharply on Wednesday after the Bharatiya Janata Party levelled explosive corruption allegations against the Congress government, claiming a massive ₹39,000 crore scam in Bengaluru’s waste management system.
Opposition leader R Ashoka launched a direct attack on the government, alleging largescale manipulation in the award of solid waste management contracts. "This is one of the biggest municipal scams in the country," he said, accusing the government of engineering a system that enabled "massive kickbacks running into thousands of crores."
He further alleged that the tender process was structured to benefit select private entities and claimed that statutory and technical recommendations, including those from the government-backed consultancy RITES, were deliberately ignored. "Expert advice was set aside to accommodate preferred bidders," he alleged.
According to the BJP, the controversial contract awarded to MSW Solutions Limited, linked to a private group, has locked Bengaluru into a 35-year arrangement that will significantly inflate public expenditure. The opposition claimed that while the current annual waste management cost stands at around ₹1,344 crore, the revised framework could push the long-term liability close to ₹39,000 crore, calling it an “unsustainable financial burden on taxpayers.”
The BJP has formally escalated the issue to the Governor, demanding a detailed probe into the tendering process, financial structuring, and alleged irregularities in the award of the contract.
The Congress government strongly rejected the allegations, describing them as “politically motivated and misleading.” It maintained that the waste management overhaul is part of a broader civic reform programme aimed at improving efficiency and long-term urban sustainability in Bengaluru.
With both sides entrenched in a sharp political confrontation, the controversy has now emerged as a major flashpoint in Karnataka politics, intensifying the ongoing war of words between the ruling establishment and the opposition over governance and transparency.
