Congress legislative Party (ClP) leader Sunil Jakhar on Friday asserted that the CAG report has “exposed” all financial irregularities of the State Government, in which it was involved in misusing funds of Central schemes and also diverted these funds as per their own priorities.
“Congress had filed complaint to the CAG about gross irregularities in handling central funds…CAG found all these complaints genuine and right,” he said.
Jakhar said that as per the CAG report, the State Government could not utilise grants under Indira Awaas Yojna for construction of houses of poor people and had some irregularities. State Government also failed to provide timely wages to the workers under MNREGA and also diverted these funds for some other work.
Also the leader of Opposition, Jakhar said: “Where the State Government has already been facing financial crisis, CAG reports said that due to delay in auction of sand or crusher dump by the State Government also proved to be revenue loss.”
Jakhar also highlighted that amount of `12.11 crore for teenage girls empowerment sanctioned by the Centre was not utilised by State Government.
“Grants under Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojna were also not utilized timely for farmers’ welfare,” he said.
