G.O. (D) No. 24, NABARD funding for Town Panchayat bridges and modern slaughter houses, 2015
The Municipal Administration and Water Supply (TP.II) Department issued G.O. (D) No. 24 on 19 January 2015, sanctioning and releasing Rs.15.40 crore for bridges and modern slaughter houses in Town Panchayats under NABARD Rural Infrastructure Development Fund XIX assistance for 2013 to 2014. The funding covers 42 bridge projects and 7 modern slaughter house projects, while 75 storm water drain works from the earlier administrative sanction were treated as withdrawn because NABARD found them ineligible.
What the government approved
The Municipal Administration and Water Supply (TP.II) Department issued G.O. (D) No. 24 on 19 January 2015. It accepts the proposal of the Director of Town Panchayats and sanctions the release of Rs.15.40 crore for constructing bridges and modern slaughter houses in Town Panchayats under NABARD Rural Infrastructure Development Fund XIX assistance for 2013 to 2014.
The funding decision follows an earlier administrative sanction covering bridges, storm water drains and modern slaughter houses at an estimated total cost of Rs.37.00 crore.
Projects covered
G.O. (D) No. 24 provides the following project details:
- 42 bridge projects, with a total fund allotment of Rs.13.25 crore and a NABARD loan component of Rs.10.60 crore.
- 7 modern slaughter house projects, with a total fund allotment of Rs.2.15 crore and a NABARD loan component of Rs.1.83 crore.
- The Director of Town Panchayats reported that action had been taken to execute the bridge and slaughter house projects and that the works were at various stages of progress.
Storm water drain projects
The earlier administrative sanction included 75 storm water drain works in 61 Town Panchayats at an estimated cost of Rs.21.60 crore. NABARD informed the government that storm water drains were not an eligible activity under the Rural Infrastructure Development Fund and requested that all 75 works be treated as withdrawn.
G.O. (D) No. 24 therefore releases funds only for bridges and modern slaughter houses, not for the storm water drain works.
Administration of the funds
The sanctioned amount is assigned to the stated capital outlay account for rural development programmes and major works. The Director of Town Panchayats is authorised to draw the amount and distribute it to the respective Town Panchayats.
The order records the concurrence of the Finance Department dated 8 January 2015.
Relevance to property owners and buyers
G.O. (D) No. 24 is a public infrastructure funding decision for Town Panchayats. It contains no provisions about private land ownership, sale, registration, planning permission, land use change or compensation. A buyer or owner may find it relevant where one of the funded public works is being carried out locally, but the document does not identify individual properties or project locations.
