Punjab schools’ funds diverted to other projects
The Punjab government has reportedly diverted Rs140 million funds allocated for providing facilities to children at public schools to other development projects, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Friday.
It is learnt that the plan to provide facilities to the children in public schools has fallen through as only 12 per cent of the allocated funds have been utilised so far.
“During the tenure of the previous regime, only 12 per cent of the allocated budget was spent on providing facilities to the schoolchildren. These funds were allocated in June 2021,” said the informed sources.
“Now, the government will spend the remaining 88 per cent of the funds elsewhere,” they confirmed, adding the release of funds would require approval of new projects.
