After ordering audit of the financial accounts of power distribution companies, the Aam Aadmi Party government in Delhi Tuesday sought audit of the financial accounts of the Delhi Integrated Multi-Modal Transit System (DIMTS).
A joint venture between the Delhi government and the Infrastructure Development Finance Company Ltd. (IDFC), DIMTS has the task of operating infrastructure projects, including the controversial Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) corridor in the city.
