The Gujarat High Court on Wednesday rejected an inquiry report submitted by the state government into a boat tragedy in Vadodara and ordered a fresh probe, noting that it absolves a former civic chief, and questioned his decision to award contract to operate the lakefront where the incident took place to an unqualifi ed fi rm.
The HC also criticised the Principal Secretary (PS) of the Urban Development and Urban Housing Department for preparing and submitting such a report, nearly six months after 14 persons lost their lives in the tragedy.
Twelve students and two teachers died when a boat capsised in Motnath lake in the Harni area of Vadodara city on January 18.
