A spokesperson of the Chief Minister’s Office said that this extension in validity would help the State Govt to clear the pending dues of Arthiyas on account of their commission, which could not be settled due to non-implementation of Public Financial Management System (PFMS) Expenditure, Advance and Transfer (EAT) Module by them as mandated by the Govt of India, disclosing this here. The total liability on account of the Arthiyas’ commission stood at Rs. 750 crore, of which Rs. 362 crore has already been paid to Arthiyas who are PFMS EAT module compliant.
