The AFC is investigating reported links between the Chairman of the D Y Patil Group, Dr Ajeenkya D Y Patil and specialty hospital contractor Surendra Engineering.
Questions have been raised about the deal struck between the government and the Patil group particularly because of the latter’s connection to powerbrokers here and because the government has provided no information on it.
The Group’s Chairman is also Honorary Consul for Guyana in Mumbai and his corporation sealed a Memorandum of Understanding for 65,000 acres of land in the Canje Basin to be used for agriculture development.
“The AFC continues to investigate this issue because initially we were told that there was some connection between that Mumbai person and Surendra Engineering and we are trying our best to get that at this stage. It will further prove that indeed these kinds of appointments, like so many, are most incestuous,”
