- All payments out of the Gram Panchayat fund in respect of bills presented to the Gram Panchayat shall be made only as per the administrative sanction accorded by the Sarpanch backed by Gram Panchayat resolutions invariably and as per the provisions of Andhra Pradesh Panchayat Raj Act 1994 and rules made thereunder.
- Before passing the respective bills by the Sarpanch, the Panchayat Secretary concerned should scrutinise bills strictly in accordance with the financial rules and place before the Sarpanch for passing the bills. Wherever possible printed forms shall be used in preparing the bills;
- After the bill is passed and entered in the respective accounting registers including cash book, thereafter only the Panchayat Secretary should place cheque for the signature of the Sarpanch;
- Where any item of expenditure requires the sanction of any authority higher than the executive authority drawing the bill, such sanction shall be obtained and the terms thereof shall be quoted on the bill;
- No item of expenditure shall be sanctioned by the Gram Panchayat and payment made unless the following conditions are fulfilled:
- Passage of resolution by the Grama Panchayat.
- Existence of administrative sanction, Technical sanction, measurement of work(M books), check measurement, etc., if it is related to the execution of works in Gram Panchayat,
- In case of purchases, the same shall be made in accordance with the procurement procedure prescribed in Andhra Pradesh Financial Code and related rules issued thereunder,

ఏ రోజు ఎప్పుడు సూర్యోదయం అవుతుంది?
ఎప్పుడు సూర్యాస్తమయం అవుతుంది?
#ఎప్పుడు_చంద్రగ్రహణం?
#ఎప్పుడు_సూర్యగ్రహణం?
ఏ కార్తె లో ఏ పంట పండించాలి ఇవన్నీ కూడా మన భారతీయులు చేతి వేళ్ళు లెక్కలతో వేసి చెప్పినవే..
ఎటువంటి పరికరాలు టెలిస్కోపులు లేకుండా సాధించినవే. పైన_ప్రశ్న_కి_జవాబు:-
మన వాడుకలో ప్రతి రోజుకి ఒక పేరు ఉంది. ఆది వారము, సోమ వారము, మంగళ వారము,బుదవారము, గురువారము, శుక్రవారము, శని వారము. ఇవి ఏడు. ఇలా ఈ ఏడు రోజులకు ఏడు పేర్లు ఎందుకు పెట్టారు. ఆ పేర్ల నిర్ణయానికి ఒక శాస్త్రీయమైన పద్ధతి వుంది.
నిర్ధిష్టమైన పద్ధతిలో పూర్వ కాలంలో భారత మహర్షులు ఆ పేర్లను నిర్ణయించారు. ఆ పేర్ల నిర్ణయానికి శాస్త్రీయమైన కారణాలున్నందునే ఆ పేర్లే ప్రపంచ వ్యాప్తంగా ఆచరణలో నేటికి ఉన్నాయి.
భారత కాలమానంలో హోరా అనగా ఒక గంట అని అర్థం. దీని నుండి పుట్టినదే ఇంగ్లీషు #HOUR . ఒక రోజుకు 24 గంటలుంటాయి, అంటే 24 హోరాలు. ఒక రోజులో ఉన్న 24 గంటలు (24 హోరాలు) కూడా ఏడు హోరాల చక్రం లో తిరుగుతాయి.. ఆ 7 హోరాలకి ఏడు పేర్లున్నాయి. అవి వరుసగా... (ఈ వరుసలోనే) శని, గురుడు, కుజుడు, రవి, శుక్ర, బుద, చంద్ర హోరాలు ప్రతి రోజు వుంటాయి. ఈ 7 హోరాలే ప్రతి రోజు 24 గంటల్లో ఉంటాయి.

- 6) G.O.Ms.No.63, Ind. & Comamp;.(M.I) Department, dated:22.02.2014.
In the reference 1st read above, the subject matter “auctioning of sand” was transferred from Panchayat Raj Department to Industries and Commerce Department. Subsequently, suitable amendments to APMMC Rules 1966 were issued in respect of auctioning of sand and for regulation of sand quarrying in the State of Andhra Pradesh vide reference 2nd read above.
2. As per the orders issued in the reference 2nd read above, sand reaches were auctioned to the highest bidder. Subsequently, in view of the Supreme Court ruling in the case of Deepak Kumar vs State of Haryana and also since under the auction system, Government was not able to control the price or the leakage of revenues, orders were issued in the reference 3rd read above for allotment of sand reaches by draw of lots from eligible applicants, as amended relevant rules from time to time vide references 4th to 6th read above. However, this system also did not work well as there was a lot of leakage of revenue and Government did not get a boost as expected. Therefore, the Government felt that there is every need to review and revise the existing Sand Policy.
3. Accordingly, the Government after careful examination and consideration of the matter in detail, hereby introduces the New Sand Mining Policy-2014 for the State of Telangana. The Salient features of the New Sand Mining Policy-2014 are as follows:-
- (i) Sand is available in the State from (3) sources, viz., 1) Rivers and streams, 2) De-silting of Reservoirs and 3) De-casting of Private Patta Lands
- (ii) The Sand available from Rivers and streams is categorized into I to V order depending on size and capacity. In I-order streams, the source is small village stream or vagu while V-order would be large rivers like Krishna and the Godavari.
- (iii) Sand in I and II order streams will be left to the Local Body and Villagers for domestic needs, Government sponsored weaker section Housing schemes for which no seigniorage charges are collected. Extraction of sand from said order streams for construction of Local Body buildings like schools, community halls etc., will be allowed subject to payment of Seigniorage Fee by the consuming agency. The excavation and transportation of sand shall be manual and no mechanical means be allowed and no sand be transported outside the local jurisdiction.
- (iv) Sand in III, IV and V order streams will be allowed for exploitation subject to WALTA Rules and Regulations.
-
(v) A preliminary identification of sand available in III, IV and V order streams will be done by the Mines and Geology Department in consultation with the Irrigation, Ground Water and Revenue Departments. These reaches will include left banks of Tungabhadra River, Krishna River including project backwaters, the Godavari river and its tributaries and all project de-siltation areas.Contd..2:: 2 ::
- (vi) Based on preliminary identification, the District Level Committee under the Chairmanship of Joint Collector will meet and cause inspection of all stretches and give a feasible area report based on WALTA criterion. The feasible areas will be allotted to the Telangana State Mineral Development Corporation Limited (TSMDC) for excavation, regulation and supply of sand. The TSMDC will then obtain all statutory clearances like EC, Mining Plan, Environment Management Plan, CFE and CFO. Once PCB clearance is obtained extraction of sand can start.
- (vii) Sand available by way of de-silting of reservoirs will also be allowed to be exploitation. The same shall be identified in consultation with the Irrigation Department.
- (viii) The feasible sand reaches identified in the III, IV and V order streams as well as sand available under de-silting of reservoirs will be handed over to the TSMDC for extraction.
- (ix) The TSMDC will appoint raising contractors for the sand reaches identified under a strict competitive bidding process. The sand so excavated will be moved to stockyards managed by the TSMDC. The stockyards can be near the sand reach. Additional stockyards near urban habitations, especially the Municipal Corporations can also be created.
- (x) Sale of sand to all consumers, small, medium or large, will be from these stockyards. Sale of sand from these stockyards will be controlled by electronic surveillance (CCTVs) and electronic documentation linked to a central documentation monitoring facility. The way-bills for transportation of sand will have the security seal of the TSMDC and will be stamped with date and time. The vehicles will be tracked by way of GPS. Any sand lorry found without TSMDC way-bill will be illegal and the vehicle should be seized.
- (xi) The intention of the Government is to ensure adequate quantity of the right quality of sand is available at a reasonable price to the people of the State.
- (xii) Sand mining in tribal areas will be governed by the provisions of the Panchayats Extension to Scheduled Areas (PESA) Act of 1996, PESA Rules of 2011 and the WALTA Act Rules of 2004.
- (xiii) The present system for sand permits in Patta lands shall continue, but with more rigorous vigilance and inspections. The demarcation of Patta lands has to be done very accurately and further ensured that no mining takes place outside the Patta lands. If ad valorem rate of seigniorage is imposed, the TSMDC rate will be the bench mark for seigniorage charges for Patta lands also.
- (xiv) The Government shall fix the rates and revise the rates of Siegniorage Fee as per the situation/demand warrants.
- (xv) Rock sand is a good alternative to natural sand. Availability of rock sand will reduce the pressure on natural sand which is not found abundantly in the State of Telangana. The technical viability of Rock Sand has been established without doubt. In fact L&T has been using rock sand for the Hyderabad Metro-Rail Project.
- (xvi) Rock sand manufactured can be accorded industry status as long as the unit manufactures 100% rock sand. Right now only 20% of the capacity is being used for manufacture of Rock Sand. VAT and power subsidy can be extended prospectively. Regular incentives can be given for new units.
- (xvii) In addition, preference in quarry lease allotment will be given for units manufacturing Rock Sand. Existing Stone Crushers can be accorded ancillary status provided the crusher rock sand is certified by ISO/NAC/NCCMB.
- (xvii) Government Departments shall be mandated to use at least 50% of Rock Sand in Government constructions.
