Woman and Child Development Minister Krishna Tirath told that she, in an attempt to make her ministry more transparent, has kicked off fresh audits for the schemes being implemented by her ministry.
"Efforts should be made to address people's grievances in public welfare programmes and no scope of negotiation should be left in the matters related to non-compliances, failure in programmes and projects, mismanagement of funds and noncooperation with social groups," said the minister said who was talking at the national conference of chairpersons of the central and states Social Welfare Boards held here.
She also mentioned that she has started numerous audits on social schemes, NGO profiling, analysis of the gaps in services and reconstitution of boards, during her initial 100 days in the ministry.
She said that schemes will be soon reviewed to make them more effective adding that state boards must regularly meet NGOs for joint evaluations and complete audit and accounts requirements in time.
