TURA, Nov 24: Tura BJP MDC Bernard N Marak has alleged that various central schemes have not reached the beneficiaries in Meghalaya, while contending that the state needs a vigilance team to monitor such schemes.
In a statement issued here on Wednesday, Marak accused the state government of turning central schemes into political party’s schemes.
Claiming that the partymen of the ruling dispensation cash in on the benefits, Marak went on say that blocks in Garo Hills were refusing to furnish details on the implementation of the central schemes.
“The BJP government at the Centre has taken laudable steps to provide all kinds of schemes to the people from all walks of life, but the implementing agencies refuse to furnish detailed information on their implementation,” the Tura MDC alleged, adding that the RTIs, which were filed in February and July this year, fell on deaf ears.
Marak also claimed that complaints from dissatisfied beneficiaries have been received from across Garo Hills with regard to implementation of central schemes.
