Rs 200 cr for spl classes for students to overcome learning loss, PTR promises review of projects under rule 110

Finance Minister Palanivel Thiaga Rajan also informed the Assembly that an analysis of the announcements made under Rule 110 of the Assembly would be completed before the end of the ongoing budget session of the House. “An analysis would be done on the announcements made under Rule 110 (of the State Assembly) in the last 10 years. How many of them were implemented and how many were dropped. The study would analyse where the resource for the announcements was pooled from? How much resource was pooled from outside the budget and how such unplanned announcements affected the government,” Thiaga Rajan informed the House while replying to the debate on the revised budget for 2021-22 fiscal. Proposing to complete the exercise before the ongoing budget session ends, the Minister said that more reviews would be conducted for different reasons in different departments. “No one shall consider it as an act of vendetta. The objective is to learn lessons from it. The reviews and studies would be made public and presented before the people to ensure transparency,” added the Minister who had presented a White Paper on the state’s finances 10 days ago.
