JAMMU, Mar 31: In a major embarrassment for J&K Government, the Comptroller and Auditor General of India has pointed out that majority of the departments and Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) are not taking audit observations seriously even after explicit directives from the Finance Department. Moreover, no action has been taken on deficiencies pointed out in the implementation of programmes and schemes during the last few years.
In its latest report, the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) said, “in the last few years, audit has reported on several significant deficiencies in implementation of various programmes/ activities as well as on the quality of internal controls in selected departments which have a negative impact on the success of programmes and functioning of the departments”.
