A review meeting of the District Planning Committee was held under the chairmanship of Revenue Minister and chairman of Kalahandi District Planning Committee Surjya Narayan Patro at the Collectorate here on Wednesday.
The meeting was attended by Leader of Opposition in the State Assembly Bhupinder Singh, Labour and Employment Minister Puspendra Singh Deo, Zilla Parishad president Sarat Naik, MLA Dusmanata Naik, Collector Roopa Mishra and other district-level officers.
The meeting decided that Rs 26.56 crore would be granted from the Backward Region Grant Fund (BRGF) while Rs 6.5 crore would be spent under the Biju KBK Yojana. The committee also planned to spend Rs 545.14 crore during the year 2011-12 at the district, block and panchayat levels.
As money is not being spent in a time-bound manner, Minister Patro while expressing his dissatisfaction over the matter wanted that action should be taken against the concerned officials for negligence in Government-sponsored works. The meeting also decided to blacklist the fraud contractors.
Minister Patro inaugurated a new tehsil building at Kesinga on Thursday.
