Dear reader,
Have you read Scroll’s report about a Rs 14 crore scandal at the Indian Council for Historical Research?
Our exclusive investigation uncovers appointments bypassing rules, shady financial dealings and funds gone without a trace. At the centre of it all: a tight circle of officials from RSS-linked Akhil Bharatiya Itihas Sankalan Yojana.
This is the inside story of how ideology and influence turned a government history council into a hub of scandal.
We followed the paper trail from tenders granted to friends of the Sangh to a book published at a cost of Rs 30 lakh but sold just 26 copies
Since Ayush Tiwari broke this story, Opposition leaders have cited our report and other media outlets are following up. This is what independent, reader-funded journalism can do. Thank you for making it possible.
Help us go further and support our work. Become a Scroll member today.
Regards,
Team Scroll
