2. Internal Control measure and transparency in the system-

The committee suggests the key control measure to be followed strictly by SRLM/STSA
1. All the proposals to be verified & validated by SRLM/STSA in pre-PAC meetings.
2. Only that applications/proposal to be put for PAC approval which is approved in
pre-PAC Meeting.
3. Sanction orders, PCOs to be generated based on the application on ERPs portal
only.
4. It was observed that CTSA members were present as representative in PAC but the
agenda and list of applicants were not shared with them before in any of the PACs
for verification or super checks of appraisal process to be recorded on the ERP
Portal. It is proposed that CTSA members may be included to check the appraisal
process before placing the applicants in the PAC meeting. If there is any deviation,
then CTSA may indicate the same before PAC
5. SRLM/STSA to prepare robust monitoring mechanism at SRLM level to avoid
deviations in the processes in consultation with CTSA.

3. Self- Control of role of Central Technical Support Agency in the state of

Maharashtra- The committee members have observed that CTSA being extended arm of
MoRD may provide its technical support to MSRLM from time to time as and when required
by MSRLM. Further, MSRLM is requested to share the information with CTSA like PAC
agenda, PAC meetings, list of proposals placed for PAC from time to time so that CTSA
may be updated on the whole process. It is observed there is a lack of communication
between MSRLM and CTSA and, the sharing of information between the two is also not very
frequent. It is proposed that the dedicated team of CTSA members may be shifted to
MSRLM office permanently for close coordination.
