As a result, there were delays in supply of textbooks beyond scheduled targets every year. There was lack of monitoring mechanism in assessment of requirement of text paper for printing of the textbooks, which led to accumulation of closing stock.
Compliance Audit on Bihar State Textbook Publishing Corporation

Failure to act on the recommendations of the Consultant also resulted in avoidable payment of penalty of INR 50.27 crore.
