"However, ANL submitted exaggerated cost of the project to GMB and thereby misled the GMB into fixing higher tariff rates for navigation of vessels. The VTPMS infrastructure became operational in August, 2010 and thereafter, ANL started collecting the VTS Fees or charges from the vessels as per the concession agreement," he said.The official said that by resorting to false and fabricated cost of project, ANL received excess payment to the tune of Rs 134.38 crore during the concerned period.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
