What the government order does

Government Order (Ms.) No. 47 of the Rural Development and Panchayat Raj (CGS-2) Department sanctions Rs.33.44 crore for Rurban Clusters under the Shyama Prasad Mukherji Rurban Mission for 2021-22. It is a government funding and accounting approval, not a document changing ownership, patta, land classification or land use.

The Government of India had released Rs.36.19 crore as a 60 per cent Central share. The Director of Rural Development and Panchayat Raj then requested release of Rs.60.32 crore, comprising Rs.36.19 crore as the Central share and Rs.24.13 crore as the State share. After examining that request, the Tamil Nadu Government approved a different total of Rs.33.44 crore.

Approved funding

Government Order (Ms.) No. 47 approves:

  • Rs.21.60 crore as the Central share.
  • Rs.11.84 crore as the State share.
  • Rs.33.44 crore in total.
  • Deposit of the sanctioned amount into the State Nodal Agency account.
  • Use of the funds through PFMS for Rurban Clusters under the mission.

The Central and State portions are assigned to separate heads of account under Other Rural Development Programmes, Community Development, and schemes shared between the State and Centre. Both portions are treated as grants for specific schemes.

Who administers the money

The Director of Rural Development and Panchayat Raj is authorised to draw the sanctioned amount from the specified heads of account. The Director must maintain the money in the State Nodal Agency account for use through PFMS for the relevant Rurban Clusters.

The Finance Department concurred with the sanction on 30 March 2022. The government order was issued by order of the Governor and signed by the Principal Secretary to Government, P. Amudha.

Relevance to property owners and buyers

Government Order (Ms.) No. 47 concerns public funding for rural development clusters. It does not identify individual properties or provide any procedure for sale, registration, patta transfer, subdivision, land conversion or acquisition. The source also does not name the Rurban Clusters receiving the funds, so it cannot by itself confirm whether a particular village or property receives project funding.
