Presadio Technologies Pvt Ltd had not carried out the installation of the AI cameras and setting up of control rooms, reveal documents.
Kerala's Leader of Opposition has said the tender amount of Rs 151 crore fixed by Keltron was much more than the actual cost.
The project cost which was initially pegged at Rs 151.22 crore, rose to Rs 232 crore later as the work was sub-contracted to multiple private firms by the primary bid winner, Keltron.
Trois installed the cameras in 2018 itself.
Keltron had flouted all rules by awarding a sub-contract for the project and concealing the matter.

Seven private companies were involved though the government had claimed its undertaking Keltron had implemented the project entirely.
