Ambulance shed and ramp · Salem, Tamil Nadu · sanctioned 15 Jun 2025 · detected 19 Mar 2026 (18 days ago)

Why this was flagged

score 70 / 100

Threshold-proximity density scan evaluated this work against 924 comparable sanctions in Tamil Nadu for the same category and financial year. A cluster of sanctions to one agency lands just under a delegation limit within a short window - the classic threshold-avoidance signature. The residual for this record falls outside the learned tolerance, and the contribution breakdown below isolates which measured features carried the score.
