'SC, ST funds unutilised'

Special Correspondent

GULBARGA: Hanumant Itagi, president of the Swabimana Jagrutha Vedike,
on Monday, charged the Gulbarga City Corporation (GCC) with failing to
frame an action plan for the money earmarked for developmental and
welfare activities for the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes in
the city.

Mr. Itagi, who led a protest march and laid siege to the
administrative office of the city corporation for more than an hour,
said the GCC officials had not prepared an the action plan to spend
the 22.75 per cent of its budget earmarked for the welfare of the SCs
and STs even though this was the final quarter of the financial year.

In a memorandum, Mr. Itagi said the Government should intervene and
ensure that the earmarked amount is used for providing basic amenities
for the SCs and STs.
