A massive controversy has erupted in the Bihar Legislative Assembly after the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) presented its audit report for the financial year 2023–24. The report revealed that a staggering ₹49,649 crore of government expenditure remains unaccounted for, lacking proper records or explanation of how the funds were utilized.This revelation has led to sharp criticism of the state government, with the opposition accusing it of gross financial mismanagement and potential corruption. The CAG report clearly indicates serious lapses in financial transparency, triggering demands for a thorough investigation and accountability from the ruling regime.With the assembly session currently underway, heavy uproar and disruptions are expected from opposition benches. Leaders from opposition parties are likely to push for a debate, a probe, and resignations of key officials if explanations aren’t provided.The timing of this report is politically sensitive, as Bihar heads into another election cycle soon. The unaccounted ₹49,649 crore could become a major poll issue, impacting public sentiment.This incident has reignited concerns over the financial governance of state funds and may shape the political discourse in Bihar in the coming months.
