Re: [Assam] Unused MLALAD funds to go to State exchequer(The Sentinel, 15.10.2007)
do not have any idea where money is coming from and where it goes. Correct. Maybe MLAs and ministers need to go thru the same training regime as IAS/ACS. Most of these peoples reps are not anything beyond matriculates and hence do not have the moral right to be ordering IAS officers around. At a start - shall we say they dont know how or where the money goes becoz they dont understand abcd of finance or accounting? P.s. In most cases we are talking about several crores of rupees here.

The department, however, made it clear to the deputy commissioners that all pending schemes up to 2006-07 have to be implemented as per the standing guidelines, and the entire amount released by December 31, 2007 has to be used. “If any funds of the previous years remain unused, that may be surrendered and deposited in the State exchequer,” the P D Department said, and added: “The deputy commissioners should furnish the reports of completion of works along with unutilization certificates in respect of MLALAD funds to it in due course.” (The Sentinel,15.10.2007) Download prohibited?

Re: [Assam] Unused MLALAD funds to go to State exchequer(The Sentinel, 15.10.2007)
C-da, Call it inference if you will - but I would say that you made this inference based on your opinion about Assamese built over more than 60 years of your life - which perhaps changed to its present form AFTER you left Assam for good in 1969. Its not new - many non-residents tend to develop superior attitudes with regards to the land of their origin - your inference puts you in this category. If you really are serious about making Assamese government more efficient you would do something positive about it - not just calling the people clueless and asking them to support ULFA's terror acts.

If you really are serious about making Assamese government more efficient you I am not serious, I just say things for fun. But why don't YOU recommend what the Assam folks need to do, since you seem to be the one who really want to do something good for Assam?

Its not new - many non-residents tend to develop superior attitudes with regards to the land of their origin - your inference puts you in this category. If you really are serious about making Assamese government more efficient you would do something positive about it - not just calling the people clueless and asking them to support ULFA's terror acts.

Is there anyone in Dispur who is keeping track of all the money earmarked for Assam and where it is supposed to be spent? I heard Tarun Gogoi say in Boston that a lot of the funds from Delhi are just promise, not real money. Whose responsibility is it to convert them to real money?
