The accounts for the year show an ovetall excess of Income over exlenditure of Rs.1043/- A conparisoD (ith the previous years ani a general appreisal is furnislred belor.r.

The deficit in the school 6ccount arise siDce the Governnent qrant for runninp tbe (athakali and Koodiyatton scbools cover onl] the salaries end stipends ( Ilainly I . It does not cover evet) essential items of other expenditure for running the 6chool6l sucb as rnaintenanceof buildin8. renti electrlcity chareesr nain- tenance of costunes aDd equipII)ents etc. Stipends are also limited bJ GovemnreDt to a flat Rs.175l- P.M. for instructions at all levels( r!hlle rve pay Rs.300/- Rs.250l- etc. for trainees 6t senior fellowship levels.

The deficit is also kept doiln to the barest Dinimum as nay be seen from the fact that there are no adDinistrative overheads (No Office stafii no sitting fee for nembers or expenses like TAr telephone charSes etc; the reguirements in th16 behalf beinC net by voluntarar] effort on the part of the office bearers and conmittee members).

Lo!r Salaries to Staff

The current rate of salary for the senior te€chers of the Margi Schools is of the order of Rs.700/- permensum and ior junior teachers Rs.l00l- per rrrensum- perhaps the ]o$est salary level anyNbere. It is indeed unfortunate that GoverDment have not enhanced tbese very lo$ salary to reasonable levels, Varying degrees of relief have been Sranted to all salaried sections - but the salaries of teachers of Margi remains unchanSed; not ililhstanding the fact tbat there is specific plan provision for thi6 object and tbe same has not been utili6ed for the just and proper object for $hich it was oade. The posltt@ ba8 be€D brouSht to t}le notlc€ of th€ Goverrnent Geveral thes and had alao been explained fur detall to a speclal ooDDltte€ whlch Uaa s€t up by th€ GovemDent to €Dqui.€ lnto the r€qulfed€nt6 of varlou6 cultural organl6atlon6 r€celviDg Srant &oo Governnerlt.
