ORDER
In the reference 1st read above, the Director of Handlooms & Textiles has
informed that an amount of Rs.74.47 crores required for implementing the Hon’ble
Chief Minister’s assurance for waiver off all outstanding Cash Credit and NCDC
Loans pertaining to the working Primary Handloom Weavers Cooperative Societies
(Cotton, Silk and Wool) availed from APCOB / DCCBs/ NABARD and NCDC. He has
also furnished draft guidelines in this regard.
3. In the reference 3rd read above the Director of Handlooms & Textiles, has
informed that the NCDC loan assistance for the PHWCs, which are not eligible for
direct funding or otherwise would continue to be considered through State
Government Guarantee. Hence the NCDC loans which were given to PHWCSs in the
state based on the guarantee given by the State Government and the Government
have repaid the loan installment to the NDDC from time to time. Hence, an amount
of Rs.25.95 crores outstanding under NCDC have already been paid by the
Government of Andhra Pradesh as a guarantor to the NCDC, New Delhi on behalf of
concerned PHWCSs in the State. Now the waiver for an amount of Rs. 25.95 crores
pertaining to NCDC loans is only paper/book adjustment pertaining to the PHWCSs
to adjust the same against NCDC dues in their books of accounts. Hence, the
remaining funds required for waiver of Cash Credit loans to the working Primary
Handloom Weavers Cooperative Societies (Cotton, Silk and Wool) availed from
APCOB/DCCBs/NABARD, is Rs.48.52 crores only.
