Indian captain Virat Kohli was allegedly paid a sum of ₹47.19 lakh in June 2015 by the Uttarakhand government from the funds allocated for victims of the 2013 floods, according to an RTI reply. The cricketer was paid for appearing in a 60-second tourism video. Uttarakhand CM's media advisor, however, dismissed the allegations, stating that the transaction was legal.
