He discussed in details with the beneficiaries regarding the needs, implementation and participation in the programme. As far as utilisation of funds received is concerned, the 1st installment received for SEEDS, has been spent as per the following break up. 1 ) Loan has been disbursed to all the 6 SHG’s @ Rs. 18000/- per Group which comes to 108,000/- and; 2 ) Assistance has been provided to all the group members @ Rs.6,000/- per group under food for work programme, which comes to Rs. 36,000/-. 3 ) Other administrative expenses has been borne by the organisation itself. Now as per the utilisation of loan part is concerned raw materials has been procured by each group from the local market and farmers. The production process has already been started. The Programme started of late due to non realisation of funds in time. Although we received the 1st installment in the 1st week of October, but the realisation of the check become possible in the last part of Nov. Practically the activities under this programme started in the month of Dec. only. During this quarter, the development has taken place as per mentioned above. Since time is running fast and the programme is half way, the 2nd and final installment of the budget may kindly be released soon to enable the groups to procure more materials immediately since materials in the market may not be available for long. Hence it is the need of the hour to help them in doing so.
