Dhalai District.
Subject: - Internal Audit ofSSA Accounts 2014-15-follow-up actions on observations.
Sir,
An internal audit was carried out in your office, in the office of Joint Block Project
Coordinator (Inspector of Schools, Chailengta, TTAADC) and some schools under your jurisdiction to
check and verify accounts of SSA Programme for the year 2014-15 for the period from April to September,
2014. Exercise of audit was done during the period from October 28th to31st 2014.
Accordingly, the audit team consisting of Sri Amit Kr. Debbarma and Sri Biswajit Das,
Auditors ofState Office of SSA has submitted detailed report based on observations.
Now, it has become necessary to take up follow up actions on the following major
observations:-
1. Block Project Office, Chailengta.
An amount to Rs.9,000/- was paid as loan to Sri Mangal Debbarma, Office
Superintendent on 17th May,2014 for the purpose of Income Tax Return. Payment of
such amount on loan is highly irregular and objectionable. Till date of audit the amount
has not been realized. This is a serious lapse in view of financial transparency. Immediate
action must be taken for realization ofthe amount.
2. Joint Block Project Office, Chailengta.
(i)It is transpired from Cash Book that an amount of Rs.22,000/- is shown as expenditure
on 9.4.2014 for school repairing, but no vouchers and utilization certificate were
produced to the audit team. It is clearly a financial irregularity. Immediate action must
be taken to regularize the matter.
(ii) Again on 27.06.2014 in Cash Book an amount of Rs.50,000/- is shown as expenditure
for construction of toilet, but no utilization/ adjustment of the expenditure has been done
till date of audit.
3. East Tilakpara J.B. School
It is observed that an amount of Rs.3,000/- has been spent from SSA Account for Mid-
Day-Meal purpose. It is not permissible and the amount should immediately be
refunded to SSA Account.

Accounts of SSA and Mid-Day-Meal are maintained in the same Bank Account and same
Cash Book, it is totally irregular. Immediate action should be taken to separate the
accounts.
6. Hokutwisha H.S.School
Despite prior information the Head-teacher of the school did not make any arrangement
for audit of accounts of SSA. The teacher maintaining accounts was found absent. It was
reported that he had been on duty to Bank. It seemed suspicious.
You are requested to look into the above financial irregularities and take immediate
corrective step.
