NIT to make OC compulsory

NIT yet to receive Rs 222 cr Govt share
MAHARASHTRA Government has not yet released Rs 222 crores of dues to Nagpur Improvement Trust (NIT) in the current financial year. This includes Rs 50 crore for undertaking works in dalit localities, Rs 27.50 crore as share of JNNURM, Rs 20 crore of Special Assistance and Rs 40 crore for Metro Region. About this Pravin Darade said this sum is likely to be allocated to NIT in next financial year and hence the budget will go-up substantially.
Asked about last year figures, Darade said though outlay was of Rs 425.80 crore, the actual revised budget was Rs 221.93 crores. This was so as Rs. 222 crores by way of allocation from State Government did not come. This year no provision has been made for development works in unauthorized layouts, Darade said to a question and said State Government has to decide on status of localities in green belt and no development zone. Till then NIT’s hands are tied as last year alone it could not act upon its plan for Rs 296 crore which it was supposed to get under JNNURM.
