MLA LAD fund: No proof for Rs 404.76 cr expenditure?

There was no utilisation certificate provided for expenditure of over Rs 400 crore by various government civic agencies between 2008-11 under Member of Legislative Assembly Local Area Development (MLA LAD) scheme, according to an RTI reply.

The Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi had framed a plan scheme ‘strengthening and augmentation of infrastructure facilities in each Assembly Constituency’ commonly known as MLA LAD scheme.

Under this, the Urban Development Department has released funds amounting to Rs 40476.11 lakh (about Rs 404.76 cr) during 2008-09 to 2010-11.

“During audit it was noticed that in 70 constituencies, the funds amounting to Rs 40476.11 lakh were released during 2008-09 to 2010-11 to 19 agencies.

“However, no accounts were submitted by these agencies to the Urban Development department. In absence of the accounts it may not be ensured whether these funds were fully utilised or not and how much funds are lying unutilised with the agencies,” a CAG draft audit for 2010-11, copy of which was provided under RTI to advocate Vivek Garg, said. No utilisation certificate for about Rs 8354.08 lakh (Rs 83.54 cr) in 2010-11, Rs 11675.27 lakh (Rs 116.75 cr) during 2009-10 and Rs 11043.66 lakh (Rs 110.43 cr) in 2008-09 released to Municipal Corporation Delhi was not provided, it

said.

Besides, utilisation certificate for Rs 577.6 lakh (Rs 57.7 cr) during 2010-11, Rs 920.08 lakh (Rs 92 cr) in 2009-10 and Rs 292 lakh (Rs 29 cr) during 2008-09 released to Delhi Jal Board was not given, the CAG draft said.
