What the government order does
The Tamil Nadu Rural Development and Panchayat Raj (CGS.2(1)) Department, through G.O. (Ms.) No. 12 dated 9 January 2024, releases the first tranche of the second instalment of programme funds for Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana III, Batch I (2021-2022), for 2023-2024.
The total release is Rs.150,67,87,500. It supports a previously approved programme to upgrade 275 roads covering 1,253.52 kilometres.
Funding approved
G.O. (Ms.) No. 12 dated 9 January 2024 records the following amounts:
- Central share of Rs.90,41,87,500.
- State share of Rs.60,26,00,000.
- Total programme fund release of Rs.150,67,87,500.
The Ministry of Rural Development had released the Central share against a State share of Rs.60,28,00,000. The Tamil Nadu Government reduced the State release by Rs.2,00,000 because that amount had been sanctioned excessively in an earlier government order.
The wider road upgradation programme has an administratively sanctioned cost of Rs.820,57,00,000. This consists of a Central share of Rs.447,13,00,000 and a State share of Rs.373,44,00,000, including an additional State share arising from adoption of the Schedule of Rates 2021-2022.
How the money will be handled
G.O. (Ms.) No. 12 authorises the Director of Rural Development and Panchayat Raj to draw and transfer the sanctioned amount to the single nodal bank account of the Tamil Nadu Rural Housing and Infrastructure Development Corporation for Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana.
The expenditure is assigned to capital outlay for rural development, specifically road and bridge works under Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana III. The Finance Department concurred with the release on 9 January 2024.
