Warangal: District collector Rahul Sharma expressed strong dissatisfaction with bank officials over delays in releasing funds for Kalyana Lakshmi, Shaadi Mubarak, and Rythu Bharosa during a Public Grievance Redressal programme at the Collectorate on Monday.
A complaint from Yadagiri, a resident of Balayapalli village in Ghorikothapally mandal, highlighted an undue delay in disbursing funds under the Kalyana Lakshmi Scheme. Responding to the complaint, collector Sharma summoned the concerned bank officials and voiced his anger at the mismanagement, accusing them of redirecting government funds to other loan accounts.
Emphasising that officials have no authority to divert these funds, Sharma ordered immediate payment to beneficiaries. He warned that failure to comply would result in strict action, directing officials to provide detailed information on pending payments.
The collector also cited a similar issue in Chala Garige, urging officials to prevent such incidents. He stated that if problems persist, complaints would be escalated to the bank’s chairman for further action.
