Most Centre-funded urban plans in Delhi delayed: CAG

Written By Unknown on Jumat, 30 November 2012 | 22.10

NEW DELHI: The CAG's performance audit of JNNURM was tabled in Parliament on Thursday. The report was based on assessments conducted between April to November 2011 through test-check of records of ministries such as urban development, and housing and urban poverty alleviation, as well as various agencies of 25 states and five union territories. The audit covered the mission period from 2005 to 2011.

The report goes on to reveal many loopholes and discrepancies in the execution of projects. In fact, the auditor devotes an entire section to "delay in completion of road projects in Delhi" in the chapter on implementation of urban infrastructure projects.

Out of road and bridge projects approved under JN8N8U8RM for Delhi, the auditors chose four for scrutiny. The report points out that construction of a bridge downstream of the existing Wazirabad bridge was approved at a cost of Rs 1087.40 crore.

The project was to be completed by December 17, 2011. But till May 2012, barely Rs 381.23 crore had been spent - on the approaches of the bridge. "The work is still in progress," the audit reports. It adds that the stipulated date of completion for the main bridge is December 19, 2013.

Next, the audit cites the example of a railway overbri8dge and railway under bridge at railway level crossing at Road number 68 near Nand Nagri which was to be completed by April 20, 2011. Its status remains "in progress". The project was approved at a cost of Rs 102.86 crore and till July 2012, Rs 108.19 crore had already been spent.

That deadlines were flouted and delays marked JNNURM projects comes through in the two other case studies taken up by the CAG. One project involved flyovers at Africa Avenue-Aruna Asaf Ali Road and Vivekanand Marg-Poorvi Marg were approved at a cost of Rs 253.22 crore. The projects were to be finished by February 2009 but could only be completed by October 15, 2010, when the Commonwealth Games were being held in Delhi.The scrutiny also took into account the flyover project at the junction of GT Road and road number 56 near the Apsara border.
