💨 Abstract

A parliamentary committee has suggested penalties and incentives for northeastern states to efficiently utilize funds for subordinate judiciary infrastructure. The committee observed that strict release guidelines under the Public Financial Management System have slowed down fund disbursement, causing three out of eight states to receive no funds in 2022-23. The committee recommended relaxing the guidelines and suggested introducing penalties or incentives to motivate states to manage funds effectively and ensure timely utilization.
