The primary purpose of the Report is to bring to the notice of the State Legislature, important results of audit.

Compliance Audit refers to examination of the transactions relating to expenditure, receipts, assets and liabilities of the audited entities to ascertain whether the provisions of the applicable Rules, Laws, Regulations, various orders and instructions issued by the competent authorities are being complied with. Performance Audit examines the extent to which the objectives of an organisation, programme or scheme have been achieved economically, efficiently and effectively. This chapter provides the audited entity’s profile, the planning and extent of audit and a synopsis of the significant audit observations. Chapter II of this Report deals with the findings of Performance Audits and Chapter III deals with Compliance Audit of various departments.
