New Delhi: March 25, 2010
The Union Cabinet today approved a proposal of the Ministry of Home
Affairs for modification and extension of Police Modernisation Scheme
for Union Territories.
The Police Modernisation Scheme for Union Territories was initiated in
2006 with a provision of Rs.884 crore in respect of the all UTs
including Delhi Police for five years from 2006-07 to 2010-11. This
has been extended for two more years viz. upto 2012-13 to give
sufficient time to UTs to utilize the entire amount allocated under

more flexible.
A total amount of Rs.413.09 crore stands released as on 26.02.2010 to
the UTs under the Scheme since financial year (FY) 2006-07. It is

is likely to be available at the end of 2010-11 which will be pooled
and distributed to the UTs on pro-rata basis during FY 2011-12 and FY
2012-13 to help UTs to utilise these funds efficiently and

Guidelines on Corporate Governance for Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs)
New Delhi: March 25, 2010
The Union Cabinet today approved the continuation of Guidelines on
Corporate governance for Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs) on
mandatory basis.
The Guidelines have now been made mandatory and are applicable to all
CPSEs. The guidelines cover issues like composition of Board of
CPSEs, Audit Committee, Subsidiary companies, Disclosures, Code of
conduct and ethics, risk management and reporting.
The Guidelines have been modified and improved keeping in view the
experience gained during the experimental phase of one year and
includes additional provisions relating to monitoring the compliance
of Guidelines by the CPSEs and formation of Remuneration Committee.
Since, the concept of corporate governance is dynamic in nature, it
has also been provided that suitable modifications in these Guidelines
would be carried out to bring them in line with prevailing laws,
regulations, acts etc. from time to time.
The continued implementation of these guidelines on Corporate
Governance for CPSEs will facilitate protection of interest of
shareholders and other stakeholders and also ensure transparency in
the operations of CPSEs.
BACKGROUND
The Government had in June, 2007 introduced the guidelines on
Corporate governance for CPSEs, which were voluntary in nature, for an
experimental phase of one year.
It was felt that while the principles of corporate governance apply
equally to both the public and private sector, there was a continued
need to adopt and apply the good Corporate Governance practices in
respect of CPSEs where huge public funds are invested. The continued
need for adoption of good Corporate Governance principles has been
reinforced in the light of recent events in the corporate world.
Thus, after due inter-ministerial consultations, the proposal for
introduction of Guidelines on Corporate governance for CPSEs on
mandatory basis was approved.
