Sixteenth Loksabha an> Title: Need to amend guidelines of MPLADS to permit purchase of small tools for development works at village level.
SHRI DUSHYANT CHAUTALA (HISAR): I would like to draw the attention of the Government towards the need for making certain amendments in the guidelines of MPLADS for purchase of small tools which may be utilised for undertaking developmental works at village level through local authority. In this connection, Favada, Kassi and Iron Tasla are common equipment to be kept at local panchyat for undertaking frequent renovation or development works in village. Accordingly, I had allotted required funds from MPLADS for my Hisar constituency. However, the same has been rejected by the Government staking that as per the point 8 of Annexure-Il of the MPLADS guidelines, small tools like Favada/Kassi and Iron Tasla are moveable items and are not permissible under the Guidelines of MPLADS. Therefore, I urge once again to bring necessary amendments in the guidelines of MPLADS permitting such kind of items keeping in view of their importance in villages for the development of local community.
