Why have some states not utilized ₹70,744 crore funds allocated for the welfare of construction workers, and what could be the consequences of this

States are yet to use ₹70,744 crore funds meant for the welfare of construction workers.
  • Lack of awareness: Some states may have not fully utilized the funds due to a lack of awareness about the availability of the funds or how to access them.
  • Administrative inefficiencies: Bureaucratic delays or inefficient administrative processes could be causing a delay in the utilization of the funds.
  • Inadequate infrastructure: Some states may lack the necessary infrastructure or mechanisms to efficiently disburse the funds to the intended beneficiaries.
  • Consequences: Failure to utilize the allocated funds could lead to delayed implementation of welfare programs for construction workers, hindering their access to benefits such as healthcare, education, and social security.
