The ED alleged that Kadam, an MLA from Mohol in Solapur, along with other officials of the corporation allegedly misappropriated large amounts. "Kadam in collusion with the officials of the corporation and other accused persons hatched a conspiracy and misappropriated funds of the corporation which were given to various institutions for their own benefit and thus embezzled an amount to the tune of over R300 crore," the agency said.
