JAMMU, Dec 29: National Panthers Party (NPP) Chairman and MLA Ramnagar has said that due to faulty and irregular practices of the State Government, Government of India (GoI) had refused to honour even the current year’s normal plan allocation of Rs 7300 crore and withheld a major portion of the same.
He said that out of the total annual plan size of 7300 crore, the GoI had refused to release the Special Plan Assistance (SPA) of Rs 2064 crore thereby giving the greatest blow to the developmental activity in the State.
He regretted that the bureaucratic red tape and administrative inertia coupled with irregular practices had cost the State dearly and deprived it of huge funding to which it was entitled in the normal course.
He furthers said that the State Government’ casual approach was evident from the fact that various District Development Board (DDB) review had not even commenced with regard to any of the Districts of the State.
