Sagar for early release of funds to PRIs
Srinagar, Aug 3: The Minister for Rural Development, Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs, Ali Muhammad Sagar has said that there should be no delay in the release of funds to the Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) by concerned 14 departments with which they have recently been associated.

Director General Accounts and Treasuries, Wali Muhammad Bhat, Commissioner Secretary, Rural Development, Farooq Ahmed Peer, Director Rural Development, Srinagar Mir Altaf Ahmed and other senior officers were present.
The Minister asked the officers to ensure that the funds are released to the PRIs on priority so that they can effectively carry on the various developmental activities in their respective areas.
