Guidelines for providing Transport facility to children for the year 2013-14 Transport facility should be provided to the children in the habitations where there is no schooling facility for primary & upper primary within the neighbourhood of 1 km & 3 km. respectively as per RTE rules, if the journey is performed by Bus / mini Bus / Auto etc. Payment of transport charges shall not be made in respect of children having the free bus pass facility. This facility should be made available to the children who put in atleast 75% of attendance during a month. In case of the child not attended the school due to ill health the above condition may be relaxed basing on the discretion of Head Master. The unit cost per child per annum is
3000/- as per SSA norms. However only actual
expenditure should be incurred without exceeding per child limit. The transport charges should be allowed only to the children studying in the nearest neighbourhood school managed by the Government / Localbody. The children attending private schools are not entitled for this facility in any circumstances. If the budget is not approved in AWP&B 2013-14 for this facility, expenditure should not be incurred from other heads even though there is a requirement. The required budget should be released in two instalments i.e., one in July and another in December from District Project Office to the SMC accounts concerned directly through RTGS after obtaining the particulars of children eligible (School-wise) from the MEOs concerned. The Headmasters concerned should disburse the actual transportation charges to the parents concerned before 5th of every month only for the days children attended the school during the month and maintain acquaintance for payment. The records concerned may be kept in school for future audit.
