The primary purpose of the report is to bring to the notice of the State Legislature important results of audit. The audit findings are expected to enable the Executive to take corrective actions as also to frame policies and directives that will lead to improved financial management of the organisations, thus, contributing to better governance. This chapter, in addition to explaining the planning and extent of audit, provides a synopsis of the significant deficiencies and achievements in implementation of selected schemes, significant audit observations made during performance and compliance audit and follow-up on previous Audit Reports.
