Chandigarh, May 21 (IANS) More than 6,800 villages in Haryana will henceforth get star ratings -- and consequently, the government grants -- on the basis of developmental works done there, initiatives taken on the social front and other parameters, official sources said on Sunday.

"A grant of Rs 10 crore will be given to each Zila Parishad
(district council). Funds up to Rs 3 lakh will be given to each Panchayat for recurring expenses," the spokesman said.
