Abstract
After a long wait to see the CAG’s audit report on the Union government’s Finance Account for the fiscal year which ended on 31st March 2022, it was tabled in Parliament on August 10. Once again, it has indicted the Finance Minister for promising to create a special purpose fund and then swiftly forgetting to create an accounting procedure, and letting the funds be merged with Gross Budgetary Support, killing the very idea of special purpose funds.
