accordingly, no funds have been allocated in the budget for
2005-2006 for these schemes. All State Governments had
been informed about the transfer of the Schemes in
February, 2005. Thus, it is for the State Government to
complete the ongoing projects. However, Planning Commission
has recently informed that funds would be provided for
ongoing approved sports infrastructure projects. Subject to
availability of funds, the admissible Central assistance
will be considered for release during the Xth Five Year Plan
for the incomplete sanctioned projects on receipt of
requisite documents viz; utilization certificate, progress
reports, completion certificate etc. from the state
governments and other agencies.
