Belagavi: According to the CAG’s report in volumes 1 and 2 of appropriation accounts and financial accounts, as many as 78 personal deposit (PD) accounts of Rs. 4,105 Crore even after the completion of the financial year were not closed.
CAG 1st and 2nd Volume reports on Dhanvini Yoga Accounts and Financial Accounts for the year 2021 – 22 were tabled in the Legislative Assembly.
There is a rule that in every financial year, the unspent amount of money in any of the individual deposits has to be transferred to the consolidated fund and those deposits have to be closed. However, the Government has not closed 78 PDs in 2021 – 22. This has left a huge amount of money of Rs. 4,105 Crore, which was supposed to be used for public projects, unspent.
