No full textThe district administration has decided to engage the services of the College of Engineering Pune (COEP) and the Gokhale Institute of Politics and Economics to conduct a third party audit of all the works taken up under the state government's `Jalayukta Shivar' programme, which aims to strengthen water sources in rural parts.
“The administration wants to ensure quality and durability of each work. We will sign a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the two institutes in the next few days,“ said district collector Saurabh Rao.
The institutions will conduct random checks of works, prepare a report on various parameters and submit it to the district collector.The collector will recommend further action if a project is found to be of substandard quality or if it is being delayed without reason.
Rao said the administration will click photographs of each project and upload them on the website with geotagging.
The `Jalayukta Shivar' programme aims to make villages drought-free. Most works proposed under the programme include strengthening of water sources and construction of small dams and ponds to increase water-holding capacity. So far, the administration has taken up over 120 such works in rural parts. As many as 198 villages have been identified under the programme.
According to a district administration official, importance is being given to people's participation in the programme. About 52 villages have been adopted by 32 industrial houses to take up irrigation-related works.Works worth Rs 7 crore have been taken up by industries, the official said.
The administration also plans to repair water supply schemes in rural parts at an expenditure of Rs 25 crore.

Money and general disequilibrium
No full textThis paper explores the existence of monetary general equilibrium in the context of a classical model of general equilibrium theory based on the static open Leontief model. It begins by constructing the model of an ideal economy in which money is inessential. This model is the counterpart of the Arrow-Hahn model that has no place for money. It then proceeds to articulate a more realistic model of a barter economy in which money plays an essential role in reducing transaction costs and materially improving the real economic outcomes in terms of outputs and real income. The conditions under which a full employment general equilibrium obtains in the regimes of currency and credit money have been established. General disequilibrium is shown to prevail if parts of the proceeds or income generated from currently produced outputs are devoted to accumulating money balances, so that saving exceeds investment. Fiscal solutions for restoring full employment general equilibrium have also been demonstrated and reasons for the inefficacy of policies like quantitative easing have been articulated
