LUCKNOW: Four months after the Uttar Pradesh chief minister Akhilesh Yadav
began distributing free laptops to students, it now turns out that Hewlett
Packard, the supplier, has not been paid for more than 5 lakh laptops it has
so far delivered. With a Rs 900-crore bill pending, HP has threatened to
stop further supplies till dues are settled, government sources said.
In June 2012, the Samajwadi Party government had announced a budget of Rs 2
,721.24 crore for distributing tablets and laptops to all meritorious
students of classes X and XII. Of this, while Rs 400 crore was earmarked for
tablets, the remaining was to be spent on laptops.
But funds got entangled in red tape and only Rs 312 crore was released into
the accounts of district magistrates, who, in turn, are responsible for
releasing funds to HP representatives in districts. Even this amount, though
, has not been paid in full. "There is no clarity on why there is a delay in
the release of funds. The government has already allocated the funds. All
that is needed is an order for its release," a senior government functionary
said.
So far, UP has taken delivery of 5,19,600 laptops, running up a total bill
of Rs 998.41 crore, according to senior government sources. According to the
contract inked with HP, the government is liable to pay 90% of the total
cost at the time the laptops are delivered. This amount touches Rs 900 crore
. In addition, while 5% will be paid after the company finishes conducting
the training and demonstration to teachers and students at tehsil or school
levels, the final 5%, the contract mandates, must be settled after a one-
year maintenance period.
Of these, 79,491 have been distributed to beneficiaries. HP has also
created an additional inventory of 1,41,866 laptops that can be made
available to the state government immediately once a purchase order is
issued. Though the complete distribution pattern of the computing gadgets
had to follow a seven-month delivery schedule, HP has met the delivery
targets of ahead of time. In fact, with the rate of delivery far exceeding
the rate at which the gadgets are being distributed, the company has also
raised concerns about the availability of storage space for the laptops.
When contacted, HP officials confirmed delivery of more than 5 lakh laptops
. They, however, refused to comment on pending payments. |
