All India Congress Presisent Sonia Gandhi while addressing a rally in Uttarakhand as part of her campaign for the Congress alleged that the present BJP Government in state misused the Central welfare funds sent to the state.
Sonia Gandhi blamed the state government for callously misusing funds allocated under different centrally-sponsored schemes, including 100-day job guarantee to jobless under MNREGA and Rashtriya Grameen Swasthya Yojna.
The UPA chairperson contested the BJP government's claim of electrifying a sizable number of villages under another centrally-sponsored Grameen Vidyutikaran Yojna. "The reality is just different. The funds meant for it were misappropriated or siphoned for other purposes instead of making full utilization of the funds allocated for electrifying a huge number of villages," said Sonia Gandhi. She said other centrally-sponsored schemes meant for poor women, children and elderly were never implemented "in a genuine spirits and sincerity, as the government had other objectives to fulfill".
