At the fifth meeting of NITI Aayog’s Governing Council on Saturday, Karnataka Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy demanded the Centre extend GST compensation period beyond five years as he feared his state will face “severe financial crunch” when the recompense period ends in 2022. The demand comes ahead of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council meeting on Friday.
Several chief ministers (CMs), of not only Opposition parties but also allies like Bihar’s Nitish Kumar, went beyond the suggested five-point agenda of the meeting to stress that centrally sponsored schemes (CSS) were bleeding states dry, and asked the Centre to either fund these fully or discontinue them. They also demanded the Centre, given the rural distress because of drought, release its backlog of MNREGA payments.
Later at a press conference, NITI Aayog Vice-Chairman Rajiv Kumar said the suggestions made by the states could form input for the formulation of the Budget, to be presented on July 5 in Parliament.
Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said central devolution to states rose from Rs 20 trillion between FY12-FY15 to Rs 41 trillion in the next four years, a rise of around 97 per cent.
Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan and Bihar’s Kumar expressed reservations at the reforms proposed in the model agriculture produce marketing committee (APMC) Act. Both said the reforms in the APMC Act might not be the panacea the model law promises.
Chhattisgarh CM Bhupesh Baghel, who earlier met the PM, said that premium should be increased for mines allotted for government venture from Rs 100 per tonne to Rs 500 per tonne and the state should also be given a share in electricity generated. Baghel said there were several loopholes in the proposed amendment to Indian Forest Act, 1927, and it does not protect the rights of tribals living in forest areas.
On GST, Kumaraswamy said several structural issues, including flawed tax rates, have caused GST revenue shortfall in the state. He said Karnataka has limited scope to mobilise additional revenue, and this would mean that at the end of 2022-23 there would be a steep fall in revenues of the state as compared to the protected revenue of 2021-22. He said this would hurt social welfare, development and infrastructure work. He demanded that compensation be extended beyond 2022.
While West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee skipped the meeting after writing to the PM where she termed the exercise “fruitless” as the NITI Aayog does not have any financial powers, Vijayan seemed to echo her.
In his speech, the Kerala CM said the NITI Aayog in its “present form has not played the much expected role of a facilitator in the last four years. There is a growing realisation that it is perhaps not a substitute for the erstwhile Planning Commission.” He said the Inter-State Council should be revived.
The Bihar CM said the 14th Finance Commission devolution has meant states having to dip into their finances to fund central schemes. He suggested the Centre discontinue the CSS and implement its priority area schemes under central sector schemes, while states fund their priority schemes from their respective funds.
Kumar demanded the Centre do away with the PM crop insurance scheme for Bihar’s farmers. He said the scheme should be delinked from farmers seeking bank loans as its premium is proving to be an additional burden when his government provides such insurance free of cost.
He said the Centre should extend the PM Kisan Nidhi scheme, in which it pays Rs 6,000 to farmers, to tillers as well.
Vijayan criticised the model APMC Act. He said in a society with highly unequal bargaining and monopoly powers, the influence of corporate entities would worsen the exploitative conditions. “Our state has shown we need to look beyond certain restrictive assumptions and prescriptive policies. We need to learn from popular experiences,” he said.
Kumar said the Bihar government dissolved all agricultural marketing boards and committees in 2006, converted these into free public markets. He said the main premise of the ‘model APMC Act’ of the Centre is based on regulating agricultural markets, but his government feels there is no need to regulate the market.
Vijayan cautioned against doing away with the Essential Commodities Act as hoarders can misuse this to create a situation of rising prices, which would hurt the consumers, especially poor and vulnerable sections.
Kumaraswamy said the ‘ease of living index’ ranking system adopted by the NITI Aayog should be “more participative, scientific and transparent”. He said giving 58th rank to Bengaluru in that index is “unacceptable as Bengaluru is widely rated as the most preferred city for work in the country by reputed agencies”.
The Karnataka CM also echoed others on central schemes and subsidies. “Regarding subsidies, our view is that the subsidies which arise because of specific central legislations or policies should be borne by the central government itself and the state should not be expected to share a portion of them,” he said.
Apart from the West Bengal CM, Telangana’s K Chandrashekhar Rao did not attend the meeting. Punjab CM Amarinder Singh also skipped it because of health reasons, but state finance minister Manpreet Badal represented him. The Punjab CM, in his speech circulated at the meeting, asked the Modi government to increase the annual assistance under PM-KISAN from Rs 6000 to Rs 12,000.
Madhya Pradesh’s Kamal Nath called for adopting a mechanism by which import and export of farm commodities is seamlessly taken care of to benefit the farmers. Rajasthan’s Ashok Gehlot was also at the meeting.
Andhra Pradesh CM Y S Jaganmohan Reddy demanded special category status for his state, saying the PM and the BJP manifesto for 2014 polls had committed to it. He placed before the meeting a letter by 14th Finance Commission member Abhijit Sen, which “explicitly stated that the commission did not recommend the abolition of special category status”.
Bihar’s Kumar made a case for special category status for his state, but suggested a way out. He said the Raghuram Rajan committee had identified 10 most backward states in the country and Bihar was one of them. He said the panel had recommended the Centre could provide assistance under other heads to most backward states.

via Today Bharat Concerns have been raised over the state government giving in to pressure from the Centre, as well as possible operational difficulties. Earlier this month, the Andhra Pradesh government issued orders announcing a major change in the free power supply scheme for farmers in the state. Instead of the subsidies borne by the state government being directly transferred to the power distribution companies, the government has announced that it will now switch to a direct cash transfer system. According to a government order (GO) issued in this regard on September 1, individual meters will be installed for agricultural power connections. Based on these readings, the government will transfer the bill amount to the farmers’ accounts, who will then have to pay the power distribution companies, or DISCOMs. The move has seen severe opposition from opposition parties, as well as farmers’ groups. The Andhra Pradesh Rythu Sangham has called for protests at several electrical substations in the state on Monday. Over the past two weeks, different groups in the state, including the Rythu Swarajya Vedika and the Tenant Farmers’ Association, have also staged agitations against the direct benefit transfer (DBT) system, demanding that the government revoke the order (GO MS 22). This resistance was foreseen by the state government. Earlier in June, in a letter to the Centre expressing opposition to the proposed Electricity Amendment Act, state Energy Secretary Nagulapalli Srikant had also referred to the DBT of power subsidy, warning that it had the potential to "create social unrest." Since the official announcement was made earlier this month, even though the government has made attempts to allay farmers’ apprehensions — trying to persuade them of purported advantages of the scheme — farmers have not been convinced. Opposition to Centre’s intervention in power sector The scheme is being implemented on a pilot basis in Srikakulam district, starting from September. In the government order, Nagulapalli Srikant said that the Central government, in order to grant additional funds to the state, has made it mandatory for states to carry out reforms in four sectors. “One of the main reforms is the Direct Benefit Transfer scheme in providing electricity to farmers. There are two major directions from the Centre in this regard. Starting from the financial year 2021-22, direct cash transfer must be done to farmers, who will then pay the bills to power companies. And this must be implemented in at least one district before December 31, 2020,” the order said. The switch to DBT was done in order to meet the Centre’s conditions for increasing borrowing limits under the Fiscal Responsibility and Budget Management (FRBM) Act. These conditions imposed by the Centre have seen criticism from various quarters, including Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao, who had accused the Central government of treating states like 'beggars'. KCR accused the Centre of trying to dominate the states, by insisting on states implementing the reforms in four sectors to qualify for increased borrowing. Earlier in June, Nagulapalli Srikant in his letter to the Centre on the Electricity Amendment Act, had written on behalf of the state government that the amendments seemed to be aimed at usurping the powers of the states. The letter said that the proposed amendments appeared to be “leaning towards centralising the electricity subject which is under the concurrent list.” “It appears to offer more protection to generators than required, and is likely to increase power purchase costs which constitute 75% of power sector cost and thereby cost of service. This is likely to undermine consumer interest and affect industrial growth," the letter had noted. Rythu Swarajya Vedika leader in Anakapalle, Balu, said that the impact of giving in to the Centre’s coercion may not be immediately visible. “Farmers fear that tomorrow if electricity becomes a subject of the Central government, their voices will not reach Delhi. Right now, it looks like the state government is giving in to pressure from the Centre,” he said. Leaders of farmer groups also fear that ceding control to the Central government could pave the path for eventual privatisation of the power sector, further affecting farmers adversely. Andhra Pradesh Rythu Sangham Krishna District President Kesava Rao also expressed the same concern. “Once distribution companies and generators are privatised, only the transmission company will remain under the government. All the major expenses of laying transmission lines etc. will be incurred by the government, while private corporations will become the major generators,” he said. Lack of faith in DBT While opposition parties have claimed that installing meters will eventually lead to dilution of the free power scheme for farmers, the YSRCP government has insisted that the scheme is a key component of its welfare scheme agenda and an extension of the legacy of former Chief Minister and CM Jagan’s father YS Rajasekhara Reddy. According to Nagulapalli Srikant, every year, subsidies amounting to Rs 8,353.6 crore are borne by the government for 17.55 lakh agricultural connections, for the use of more than 12,000 million units of power. The government order announcing the switch to DBT states that no burden will be laid on farmers and that the monthly bill amount will be transferred to their accounts by the government at the beginning of each month. In the event of any lapse on the government’s behalf, the order assures that the DISCOMs will not stop power supply. The state government has claimed that farmers will benefit from knowing how much subsidy they’re receiving from the government. By paying the DISCOMs directly, farmers will have the authority to demand better services and hold the power companies accountable, the state government said in its order. While the installation of meters for agricultural power connections is bound to be an expensive exercise, this will be taken up by the DISCOMs, with the government bearing the expense. Ajeya Kallam, Principal Advisor to the Chief Minister, has said that the smart meters which will be installed will have many advantages. He said that any problems in electricity supply can be tracked and rectified, and that short circuits and damages in transformers can be prevented through the use of smart meters. Kesava Rao, however, called the meters a ‘noose’ for farmers. Calling the switch to DBT a betrayal by the state government, he raised concerns over the implementation of the scheme, noting that subsidies transferred in the case of other DBT schemes often tend to be much lower than the expense incurred by the beneficiary. The government plans to set up committees at the village, mandal and district levels to implement the scheme. The village committees will be tasked with identifying beneficiaries. Connections in the name of former landowners will be changed to the name of present owners. An Assistant Engineer from the DISCOM, and a Deputy Task Engineer will verify the connections. Separate bank accounts will be created for the scheme so that banks do not divert the DBT amount towards the farmer’s loan repayments or other such purposes. The creation of these separate accounts, and the verification of power connections, will be done based on the farmers’ Aadhaar numbers. Ajeya Kallam has also said that tenant farmers in the state will not face any problems with the scheme. Balu, however, claims that the government is yet to identify lakhs of tenant farmers in order to issue the Crop Cultivator Rights Card (CCRC) to avail benefits under the Andhra Pradesh Crop Cultivator Rights Act passed last year. “Less than 3 lakh farmers have received the CCRC cards so far, whereas there are at least 15 lakh tenant farmers in the state. When they are unable to even identify all of them in the first place, how can they guarantee that they will create accounts for all of them,” he questioned.

AP assly to pass resolution, requesting Centre to maintain NPR register as in 2010
The Andhra Pradesh government will pass a resolution in the ensuing Budget session of the state Legislature, requesting that the Centre maintain the National Population Register (NPR) as it existed in the year 2010.
Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy took to Twitter on Tuesday evening to spell out the YSR Congress' stand on the NPR issue.
"Some of the questions proposed in the NPR are causing insecurities in the minds of minorities of my state.
After elaborate consultations within our party, we have decided to request the Central Government to revert the conditions to those prevailing in 2010," the Chief Minister said in the first tweet.
"To this effect, we will also introduce a resolution in the upcoming assembly session,"Jagan said in the second tweet.
The Chief Minister's tweets came in the backdrop of his governments recent order, gearing up the administrative machinery for the conduct of the NPR exercise and Housing Listing and Housing Census as part of Census of India 2021 to be taken up for 45 days between April and September 2020.
"In view of a number of apprehensions and doubts being expressed in various quarters with respect to the conduct of NPR exercise, following clarifications are issued to all the District Collectors/ Principal Census Officers in the shape of "Frequently Asked Questions" (FAQ) for easy dissemination to all concerned," General Administration Department Secretary Shashi Bhushan Kumar said in the order issued on January 22.
He said people are not required to submit any document to the enumerators during the NPR exercise.
"Enumerators are just required to record whatever answers are given by the people and not to press for any further answers to any query if they do not intend to give and also not to ask for any document," Kumar said in the order.
The GAD Secretary added that all officials involved, from enumerators onwards, "have been/are being trained" to the effect that there was no requirement of submission of any document by the people during the NPR exercise, nor any requirement to insist on answer to any query if people do not intend to answer.
