AGARTALA, Sep 25 (TIWN): Tripura BJP Chief Minister Biplab Deb has charged the Central Govt for depriving PWD, which has strengthen previous CPI-M Govt's claim about "Central Deprivation" once again.
CM while addressing media at Secretariat said, when NHIDCL gets a project it get huge amount but when PWD takes project, Govt gives very less. CM further compared if NHIDCL gets Rs. 53 crores, PWD gets only 10 crores.
However, when the same allegation the previous Govt brought in its time, Modi Govt's rubbished the claim, but today may be mistake but Biplab Deb clearly said, NHIDCL is heavily profited by Central Govt, whereas PWD gets not even 20 % of what NHIDCL gets, seems, Biplab Deb's costly Delhi visits are not helping the state to draw funds.
Talking about the present condition of Central funding on roadway Chief Minister Biplab Deb clearly said, "The roadway was last built and maintained by the previous Govt and I don't have any fund for new road now. Also PWD is left without works since many time, whereas we have requested the Centre to handover some projects to PWD from NHIDCL"
However, CM says, he is hoping Central will release some funds soon.
