Unspoken ones from the CAG report for the year 2018-19.
TN government has spent in excess of 1000 Crores for school education in the year 2018-19.
Not restricting expenditure for education due to budgetary constraints can be appreciated.
Cash balance and investment of cash balances by TN government
2010-11 : ₹15,747 Crores
2018-19: ₹43,229 Crores
Interest payments to revenue receipts posted a reduction from 17.78% to 16.55%. Increased revenue receipts the reason.
Between 2017-18 and 2018-19 the State’s revenue had shown a decent growth in comparison to the preceding years.
For the first time in 5 years the state posted a growth of 19% over the previous year.
While interest payments are amplified, less emphasis is given for increase in expenditure for salaries and pensions.
In the year 2018-19, 41% of the revenue receipts is spent on salaries and pensions. It is close to 50% now.
Between 2014 and 2019, scheme based subsidies has increased by ₹8,549 Crores and the explicit subsidies has reduced by ₹851 Crores.
Good to see reduction in explicit subsidies.
Rate of growth of outstanding debts reduced in comparison to the previous 5 years.
Debt repayment/Debt receipts marked a five year high at 31.43. Shows increased repayments of debts and comparatively less incoming new loans. cag.gov.in/webroot/upload…

The Trust began the exercise to buy-over lands adjoining the boundary of the 70 acres temple complex, which it got after the Nov’2019 SC verdict.
Intent was to expand the temple complex to 107 acres
The claim is that Irfan Ansari and Ravi Mohan Tiwari purchased some of these adjoining lands for 2 Crores and sold it to Ram janbhoomi trust for 18.5 Crores.
This claim is half baked & misleading.
Below is the e stamp document for the land purchased by Irfan Ansari. Stamp duty paid was ₹40,23,920.
In UP, stamp duty has to be paid at 7% of property value. 7% stamp duty means the property purchase value is 5.74 crore.
