Bundelkhand remains laggard in utilising development funds by NABARD

The impoverished Bundelkhand region in Uttar Pradesh remains laggard in utilising development funds sanctioned by National Bank for Agriculture and Rural development (Nabard).

Under the Rural Infrastructure Development Fund (RIDF), Nabard advances credit to the state government for various rural infrastructure projects, including canal, roads, flood control, bridges and irrigation.

This financial year, Bundelkhand has posted a poor 48 per cent disbursement to loan ratio compared to other regions in Uttar Pradesh.

Under RIDF tranches for 2010-11, Bundelkhand was sanctioned total loans worth Rs 1,222 crore, of which the disbursement stood at only Rs 583 crore.

In comparison, the eastern, western and central UP regions fared much better with respective comparative figures of Rs 3,034 crore (Rs 1,866 crore), Rs 1,338 crore (Rs 857 crore) and Rs 1,141 crore (Rs 695 crore).
