It was also resolved in the meeting that hundred of Crores payment of Industrial Units since last few months blocked with the Power Development Department for the supply of Materials under the Sobhayaga Scheme of the Govt. of India as the Bills pending with the Department due to some procedural delay in spite of the facts that the Material Supplied by the Unit Holders as per the delivery schedule. It is unfortunate on the part of the Power Development Department to withhold the payment of Industrial Units in spite of the facts that the Funds already released by Govt. of India to PDD under the said scheme.
