It is understood that interest free loans from members funds were taken by some executives for an extended period of time, without any approval. There have also been concerns about the opulent spending for personal purposes by those in charge of the day-to-day functioning of the organisation, raising concerns about lack ♔of transparency and absence of any audit proce🌺dure.
