| A Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) report on irregularities into the National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) scheme has revealed that the implementation framework of the centrally-aided scheme was violated by the Mayawati government.
NDTV has accessed the CAG's report to the scheme from 2008 to 2011 which slams the Uttar Pradesh government over procurements made by an unauthorised body. It says tenders for procurement of goods worth more than Rs. 1000 crore were given through a process which did not conform to open tendering methods under the NRHM framework.
Questioning procurements, the auditor's report also says only one officer of the Principal Secretary rank was making all the crucial purchase decisions. The framework suggests that three officers of this rank, including one from the planning and finance, should also have been part of the decision making body.
Speaking to NDTV, CBI sources have said that the CAG report will definitely aid in NRHM investigations as it offers macro perspective on irregularities which is crucial. They also say that a macro perspective is essential because so far the CBI is only investigating individual cases of corruption.
