After #MP #Rajasthan creates state mineral fund to channel #DMFT funds frm districts. Those with more than Rs.25 crs accrual to contribute 50%. SMF to be used for #silicosis aid+othr works. Fund to be placed under state mines dept.
State concerns: District don't hv the capacity to use big funds; burden of disease is higher in other districts whr SMF can help "rationalize" the aid.
Bigger concerns: DMF is a district level fund & districts must hv proper office & expertise to plan for its use;
Shud it b shared with othr districts before addressing issues in districts of origin? Instead of local planning & equipping districts for better implementation & ppl's participation,won't SMFs be a step back? @ashokgehlot51 @SachinPilot @NITIAayog @Bh_Chandra @MinesMinIndia
