The Far Western Province government has only been able to spend one percent of its capital expenditure in the first three months of the current fiscal year 2008/09.
Ministry officials have said that capital expenditure was low as of mid-Asoj due to the failure of ministries to prepare the necessary procedures for the implementation of capital programs due to the Genji movement and other reasons. One percent of the expenditure in the development budget is also the outstanding payment amount for the work done in the last fiscal year.
According to the Provincial Controller of Accounts Office, only 198 million 29 thousand 825 rupees have been spent on capital expenditure in this three-month period. During this period, 1 billion 187 million 29 thousand 675, or 9 percent, has been spent on current expenditure. The provincial government has allocated 13 billion 52 million 61 million for current expenditure and 19 billion 82 million 52 million 6 thousand for capital expenditure in the current fiscal year.
The total expenditure in the total budget of 33 billion 36 million 13 million 6 thousand is 4 percent. The amount is 1 billion 38 million 58 million 59 thousand 500.
The Ministry of Physical Infrastructure Development, which has the highest budget, has the lowest expenditure of only 1.63 percent. Out of the Rs 15.32 billion 17 thousand allocated to the ministry, only Rs 250 million 121 thousand 440 has been spent. Out of the Rs 14.70 billion 91 lakh 53 thousand allocated for capital, only Rs 160 million 197 thousand has been spent. Out of the Rs 610 million 864 thousand allocated for current, only Rs 80 million 99 lakh 23 thousand 734 has been spent.
Mohan Kunwar, acting secretary of the ministry, said that since most of the projects in the Ministry of Physical Infrastructure Development are new, it will take time to study them, so capital work has been reduced this year.
The ministry with the second highest budget allocation is the Ministry of Social Development. The total budget of the ministry is Rs 6.94 billion 555 thousand. Out of this, Rs 470 million 92 lakh 9 thousand 751 (6.90 percent) has been spent.
The Ministry of Social Development has spent 11.46 percent of its current expenditure and 0.59 percent of its capital expenditure during the three-month period, according to the Treasury and Accounts Controller's Office. The Ministry of Land Management, Agriculture and Cooperatives has spent 3.34 percent of its total budget of Rs 3.297 billion.
