The rural development department has finally made some changes to bail out the district administration in the last month of the current fiscal. 

The rural development department has asked the district administration to allow the BDOs and mukhiyas to withdraw fund for the purpose of implementing MGNREGA schemes and for wages of workers. Sources also said withdrawal ofMGNREGA fund has come to a total halt after the panchayat sewaks went on a strike on February 9. As per the rule book, the funds can be withdrawn from bank only with the signatures of the panchayat sewak and mukhiya for implementing schemes at the Panchayat level. 

Sources said it has started showing its adverse effect also. Payment of wages to MGNREGA labourers too has now stopped. The state government woke up to this horrifying situation when the districts began writing the state government about the pathetic condition of MGNREGA labourers for want of wages not paid to them. 

Not only this, even no withdrawal indicates no expenditure. The physical and fiscal position of MGNREGA schemes further dipped low in Jharkhand. Palamu DC Pooja Singhal confirming this said, "The rural development department has given permission to direct the BDO and the mukhiya to jointly sign cheques for withdrawal of fund for its spending on the schemes and wages to be paid to MGNREGA labourers." 

"When this ongoing strike will end, there will be the same old system wherein panchayat sewaks and mukhiyas used to sign on cheque for withdrawal of fund for MGNREGA schemes," she added.
