What it does

G.O. (Ms) No.38, dated 1 March 2024, issued by the Rural Development and Panchayat Raj (CGS.4) Department, approves government funding for Swachh Bharat Mission (Grameen) Phase II. The funding is the second tranche of the second instalment for the financial year 2023-2024.

The approval follows the release of Central funds by the Government of India, Ministry of Jal Shakti, Department of Drinking Water and Sanitation, under three sanction orders dated 9 February 2024.

Funding approved

G.O. (Ms) No.38 sanctions a combined amount of Rs.176,66,66,667, consisting of:

  • Central Share of Rs.106,00,00,000.
  • Corresponding State Matching Share of Rs.70,66,66,667.

The Central Share was released through three Government of India sanctions:

  • Rs.74,74,38,000 under Sanction Order No.100/2023-24.
  • Rs.28,29,48,000 under Sanction Order No.101/2023-24.
  • Rs.2,96,14,000 under Sanction Order No.102/2023-24.

The expenditure is allocated under Water Supply and Sanitation accounts for sanitation services, the Scheduled Caste Component Plan and the Tribal Sub Plan. The accounts classify the money as grants for specific schemes under the Total Sanitation Campaign and Swachh Bharat Mission.

Administration of the funds

G.O. (Ms) No.38 accepts the proposal submitted by the Director of Rural Development and Panchayat Raj. The proposal sought release of the Central and State shares, transfer to the Single Nodal Account maintained at Indian Overseas Bank, Saidapet Branch, Chennai, and authority for the Director of Rural Development and Panchayat Raj to draw the funds.

The financial tables also provide for reappropriation between specified budget accounts to support the sanctioned releases.

Relevance to property owners and buyers

G.O. (Ms) No.38 concerns government financing for a rural sanitation scheme. It does not identify any particular property, village, survey number or land parcel. It also does not state that it acquires land, changes land use, alters title, imposes a property charge or grants development approval.

A property buyer or owner would therefore use this document only as evidence of government sanitation funding, not as proof of ownership, classification, approval or an encumbrance affecting a property.
