1,03.51 lakh and an increase of
`
1.00 lakh. Out of the total reduction in provision by
`
1,03.51 lakh, decrease of
`
85.44 lakh
was stated to be due to non-filling up of vacant posts and increase of
`
1.00 lakh for meeting
expenditure for POL. Specific reasons for remaining decrease of
`
18.07 lakh have not been

supplementary provision obtained in March 2013 towards consultants fee to Indian
Administration for preparing DFRs for the development of Ports at Kalingapatnam and
Bhavanapadu proved unnecessary.
