Under the Sarva Shiksha Bhiyan (SSA), the Central share for 2006-07 has been 
enhanced to Rs. 11,000 crores from Rs. 7527.23 crores in 2005-06.  A statement 
showing the details of the Central Government allocations to the States/UTs for 
2006-07 is at Annexure.

            Under the SSA a regular system of financial monitoring has been put 
in place with quarterly financial reviews, concurrent field reviews and 
independent annual auditing of accounts.

            A case of misuse of SSA funds in Darjeeling district of West Bengal 
has come to notice, in which a police case has been registered and 
investigations have started.

            Whenever any instance of deviation from the norms in expenditure is 
brought to notice, the Central Government takes up the case with the concerned 
State Government and the deficiencies are rectified. 

      This information was given by the Minister of State Smt. D. Purandeswari 
in a written reply in the Rajya Sabha today.

                                                            …..
