Maitreyan NEW DELHI; Chairman, March 4, 2008 Department-related Parliamentary Standing Committee on Science and Technology, Environment and Forests. (iii) 1 REPORT The Report of the Committee deals with the Action Taken by the Ministry of Environment and Forests on the recommendations contained in the One Hundred Seventy Fourth Report of the Department-related Parliamentary Standing Committee on Science and Technology, Environment and Forests on the Demands for Grants (2007-08) of the Ministry of Environment and Forests, which was presented to both the Houses of Parliament on 26th April, 2007. There were twenty-three recommendations in the Report of the Committee. Action Taken Notes on the recommendations of the Committee were received from the Ministry on 26th October, 2007. The Committee’s recommendations, action taken thereon and comments of the Committee on the Action Taken by the Ministry of Environment and Forests are set out in the succeeding paragraphs:— REVIEW OF PLAN OUTLAY 2006-07 AND PROPOSALS FOR 2007-08 1. Recommendation (Para 5.5) The Committee is concerned with the way the budgetary allocation has been made in respect of the Ministry of Environment and Forests during the year 2007-08. It has been observed that there is just 1.2 per cent increase in overall budget allocations as compared to last year’s allocations. It appears that the Planning Commission has not even considered the normal rate of inflation. At the same time, Committee would like to have clarification from Ministry in this context as to what are the specific reasons due to which the Planning Commission has approved such a tight budgetary allocation to the Ministry. The committee has strong apprehensions that with such tight budget, Ministry would not be able to pursue its ongoing schemes with vigour. The Committee recommends that their allocations be re-examined in view of the increasing need to maintain high quality of environmental inputs. Action Taken by the Government Overall budgetary allocations for the Ministry was increased from Rs. 1520.14 crores in 2006-07 (BE) to Rs. 1539.00 crores in 2007-08, implying an increase of 1.24 per cent. Plan outlay was increased from Rs. 1338.93 crores in 2006-07 to Rs. 1351.00 crores, indicating an increase of 0.90 per cent, and non-plan outlay was enhanced from Rs. 181.21 crores in 2006-07 to Rs. 188.00 crores in 2007-08, a rise of 3.75 per cent. Thus, the low increase in Ministry’s budget in 2007-08 was on account of only a marginal increase in Ministry’s plan budget for 2007-08. Planning Commission, in plan discussions with the Ministry, had approved a plan outlay of Rs. 1421.00 crores for 2007-08, implying a normal step up of 6.1 per cent over the previous year. Subsequently, and as a part of its Zero Based Budgeting Exercise, Planning Commission deducted an amount of Rs. 70 crores from this approved plan outlay, transferring these salary and establishment related expenses from Plan to Non-Plan budget of the Ministry. This recommendation of the Planning Commission to the Finance Ministry resulted in a reduction of Plan Budget of the Ministry to Rs. 1351 crores, while the Non-Plan Budget of the Ministry was required to be correspondingly enhanced by the Finance Ministry. While this reduction in Plan Budget was effected by the Planning Commission while allocating plan outlays to the Ministry, corresponding enhancement of Ministry’s Non-Plan Budget in 2007-08 by the Finance Ministry was not operationalized. Subsequently it was clarified by the Finance Ministry, that such transfers from Plan to Non-Plan budget, as effected by the Planning Commission, were not possible in case of ongoing schemes. The enhanced requirement of the Ministry will, thus, be examined/considered at Revised 2 Estimates stage, keeping in view its plan fund requirements and the actual performance during the first half of the current financial year. Comments The Committee expresses its serious concern over the fact that there has been a severe curtailment of funds for the Ministry, despite the fact that there is a greater need to invest substantially to contain the phenomena of environmental degradation and global warming. The Committee feels that the Ministry has not been able to project its funds requirements to the Planning Commission properly. The Committee recommends that the Planning Commission should be properly sensitized to the issue of funds allocation, during the discussions with the Ministry, keeping in view the urgent need for environmental protection. The Committee desires that the changes effected at the R.E. stage be intimated to the Committee. 2. Recommendation (Para 5.6) The Committee feels, that due importance has not been given to the budgetary demands under heads of Ministry of Environment and Forests by the Planning Commission. The Committee has further noted that expenditure cut during revised estimate stage, sometimes are plainly arbitrary. Very often the budgeted amount is not fully utilized because of the cut imposed in the plan outlays or delays in approval of projects by Expenditure Finance Committee (EFC). In view of

  • Political Unrest in Ladakh Buddhist’S Main
    Political unrest in Ladakh Buddhist’s main victims Some radical elements within LUTF may take advantage of the situation and give new dimension to the dormant sentiment in the mind of Ladakhi Buddhists. Clearly Leh is heading for more turbulence in the coming days. By G L Jalali Ladakh is the remotest part of J&K state, mostly inhabited by the Budhists who have close religious and cultural affinity with the Tibetan Buddhists situated at the highest altitude, Ladakh is generally called the “Roof of the World”. It is surrounded on all sides by rugged mountains which cut it off from the rest of the country. Its total area is about 32,000 square miles and total population is about two lakhs, majority of whom are the Buddhists. During Muslim rule, a good number of Ladakhi Buddhists were forcibly converted to Islam. So, at present a large number of these neo-converted Muslims live in Ladakh and Kargil districts. Kargil, which was part of Ladakh district, was separated to constitute a predominantly Shia district for political reasons in early seventies. Ladakh, on all counts, is the most backward part of India where majority of the Ladakh Buddhists earn their livelihood by raring Yaks and cultivating a kind of barley known as “Grim” in their fields. They mostly remain engrossed in religion and performing religious rituals. Their life remains centered round monasteries called Gompas. Their art and learning is concentrated in the Gompas which remain under the control of a local Lama who is both religious and temporal head of the local people.

Most importantly, however, members based outside of Ladakh should begin making their travel arrangements in good time. The colloquium will be held at the very end of August, just prior to the Ladakh Festival, and this means that there will be many other people trying to get in and out of Leh.

  • Ladakh: Land of High Passes, Part I
    Ladakh: Land of High Passes PART I Tourism: Savior or Destroyer? IY PRAMILA JAYAPAL MUSSOURIE, India November 1995 I was not prepared for Ladakh. I had read about it. I knew about its barren beauty and majestic scenery. I knew that it was more Tibe- tan than Tibet, now that Tibet is a Chinese-occupied territory. But still, when our plane from Delhi flew through the narrow mountain gorges and I saw the snow-tipped peaks all around us with wisps of cloud encircling their tips, I felt unprepared to absorb the grandeur, the sense of complete remoteness, the feeling of vulnerability next to the enormity of nature. According to the Hindu epic, the Mahabharata, Vishnu (the Pre- server of Life in the Hindu divine trinity) lived on the shore of a great sea with two seagulls. Every year, no matter where the female seagull laid her eggs, the sea would come in and wash them away in its raging waters. The seagulls finally appealed to Lord Vishnu for help. Vishnu rescued them by opening up his mouth and swallow- ing the seamin its place lay Earth. Then Vishnu slept, exhausted from his feat. While he slept, the demon Hiranyankisha leapt on Mother Earth and raped her so brutally that her limbs were broken and levered up, high into the clouds, forming the Himalayas. The intensity and brutality of this legend accurately reflect the bar- ren, intimidating grandeur of the Himalayas, within whose rain shadow Ladakh is nestled. It does not, however, do justice to the ab- solute perfection and magnificence of the land.
