AGARTALA, Feb 11 (TIWN): Explaining NITI Aayog, Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in his one day visit in Tripura said that without utilization certificates, funds at loose and unattached manners will not be provided to any state.

Jaitley was asked by media about the allegation brought by CPI-M issuing the fund debacles with Centre following the abolition of planning commission and by introducing NITI Aayog.

Infact Chief Minister of Tripura Manik Sarkar brought allegations many times that via NITI Aayog, Centre has snatched state's powers.

Rubbishing Tripura Chief Minister Manik Sarkar's allegation against NITI for snatching state's powers, Jaitley said, "It's totally a baseless claim whereas State and Centre must cooperate with each-other. Funds can't be lose and unattached and that's what NITI Aayog is".
