&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;The number of reports brought out by the country&amp;rsquo;s top audit body, the Comptroller and Auditor General of India, has come down sharply in the past five years, raising concerns that the government&amp;rsquo;s financial accountability is not coming under the CAG&amp;rsquo;s gaze very closely. The total number of CAG reports relating to central government ministries and departments came down from 55 in 2015 to just 14 in 2020, a fall of nearly 75%, a reply to an RTI application filed by this newspaper said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The CAG&amp;rsquo;s mandate is to serve as a watchdog, bringing out financial, performance and compliance reports of the government. &amp;ldquo;The CAG is the supreme audit institution of India and is expected to promote financial accountability and transparency in the affairs of the audited entities,&amp;rdquo; the CAG said in its 2019-20 own performance report. The power its reports yield came out starkly during the United Progressive Alliance government of Manmohan Singh.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Its scathing reports on the 2G auction, coal block auction, Adarsh housing society and the Commonwealth Games of 2010 blighted Singh&amp;rsquo;s corruption-free image and brought down his government. The information received through the RTI application revealed that the number of CAG reports tabled in Parliament was the highest in 10 years during the early years of the National Democratic Alliance government.But the numbers have fallen steadily after that.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The RTI reply revealed that defence audit reports prepared and tabled in Parliament have also come down during the last few years. While eight audit reports were tabled in Parliament in 2017, it was zero last year. The story is repeated in railway audit reports. In 2017, five reports were prepared but it was only there in 2020.

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;The total number of CAG reports relating to central government ministries and departments came down from 55 in 2015 to just 14 in 2020, a fall of nearly 75%.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;The number of reports brought out by the country&amp;rsquo;s top audit body, the Comptroller and Auditor General of India, has come down sharply in the past five years, raising concerns that the government&amp;rsquo;s financial accountability is not coming under the CAG&amp;rsquo;s gaze very closely. The total number of CAG reports relating to central government ministries and departments came down from 55 in 2015 to just 14 in 2020, a fall of nearly 75%, a reply to an RTI application filed by this newspaper said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The CAG&amp;rsquo;s mandate is to serve as a watchdog, bringing out financial, performance and compliance reports of the government. &amp;ldquo;The CAG is the supreme audit institution of India and is expected to promote financial accountability and transparency in the affairs of the audited entities,&amp;rdquo; the CAG said in its 2019-20 own performance report. The power its reports yield came out starkly during the United Progressive Alliance government of Manmohan Singh.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Its scathing reports on the 2G auction, coal block auction, Adarsh housing society and the Commonwealth Games of 2010 blighted Singh&amp;rsquo;s corruption-free image and brought down his government. The information received through the RTI application revealed that the number of CAG reports tabled in Parliament was the highest in 10 years during the early years of the National Democratic Alliance government.But the numbers have fallen steadily after that.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The RTI reply revealed that defence audit reports prepared and tabled in Parliament have also come down during the last few years. While eight audit reports were tabled in Parliament in 2017, it was zero last year. The story is repeated in railway audit reports. In 2017, five reports were prepared but it was only there in 2020. Former IAS officer Jawahar Sircar said the trend was bad as the CAG&amp;rsquo;s primary duty was to audit the expenditure of public money.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;The number of reports brought out by the country&amp;rsquo;s top audit body, the Comptroller and Auditor General of India, has come down sharply in the past five years, raising concerns that the government&amp;rsquo;s financial accountability is not coming under the CAG&amp;rsquo;s gaze very closely. The total number of CAG reports relating to central government ministries and departments came down from 55 in 2015 to just 14 in 2020, a fall of nearly 75%, a reply to an RTI application filed by this newspaper said.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The CAG&amp;rsquo;s mandate is to serve as a watchdog, bringing out financial, performance and compliance reports of the government. &amp;ldquo;The CAG is the supreme audit institution of India and is expected to promote financial accountability and transparency in the affairs of the audited entities,&amp;rdquo; the CAG said in its 2019-20 own performance report. The power its reports yield came out starkly during the United Progressive Alliance government of Manmohan Singh.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Its scathing reports on the 2G auction, coal block auction, Adarsh housing society and the Commonwealth Games of 2010 blighted Singh&amp;rsquo;s corruption-free image and brought down his government. The information received through the RTI application revealed that the number of CAG reports tabled in Parliament was the highest in 10 years during the early years of the National Democratic Alliance government.But the numbers have fallen steadily after that.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The RTI reply revealed that defence audit reports prepared and tabled in Parliament have also come down during the last few years. While eight audit reports were tabled in Parliament in 2017, it was zero last year. The story is repeated in railway audit reports. In 2017, five reports were prepared but it was only there in 2020. Former IAS officer Jawahar Sircar said the trend was bad as the CAG&amp;rsquo;s primary duty was to audit the expenditure of public money.&lt;/p&gt;

CAGed? Top audit body's reports on Centre's money management down by 75 percent

-The New Indian Express The total number of CAG reports relating to central government ministries and departments came down from 55 in 2015 to just 14 in 2020, a fall of nearly 75%. NEW DELHI: The number of reports brought out by the country’s top audit body, the Comptroller and Auditor General of India, has come down sharply in the past five years, raising concerns that the government’s financial accountability is not coming under the CAG’s gaze very closely. The total number of CAG reports relating to central government ministries and departments came down from 55 in 2015 to just 14 in 2020, a fall of nearly 75%, a reply to an RTI application filed by this newspaper said.

The power its reports yield came out starkly during the United Progressive Alliance government of Manmohan Singh. Its scathing reports on the 2G auction, coal block auction, Adarsh housing society and the Commonwealth Games of 2010 blighted Singh’s corruption-free image and brought down his government. The information received through the RTI application revealed that the number of CAG reports tabled in Parliament was the highest in 10 years during the early years of the National Democratic Alliance government.But the numbers have fallen steadily after that. The RTI reply revealed that defence audit reports prepared and tabled in Parliament have also come down during the last few years.
