Santosh Lad to take up with Chief Minister the issue of streamlining funds allocations in local bodies

Labour Minister and Dharwad district in-charge Santosh Lad has said that he will take up with the Chief Minister the issue of formulating a law to streamline the allocation of grants in a systematic manner in local bodies and also in government departments.

He was chairing a review meeting on various development works of Hubballi Dharwad Municipal Corporation (HDMC) in Hubballi on Monday where several of the municipal council members raised their voice against the indiscriminate manner in which funds were allocated.

Raising the issue, BJP councillor Thippanna Majjagi pointed out that funds under 15th State Finance Commission have not been distributed uniformly.
