Delhi Govt to Fund Kanwar Committees Through DBTS

NEW DELHI:

Approved committees will be granted a one-time aid of ₹50,000 to ₹10 lakh, depending on the size and duration. The recommendation of the local MLA and MP has been made mandatory for registration.

In a press conference on the day, the CM said: "Fifty per cent of the total grant amount will be given in advance to the kanwar committees, while the remaining 50% will be released only after the committee submits the utilisation certificate (UC), verification with geo-tagged photos by the SDM or tehsildar, and complete audit documents."
