Good. Let us move on. What happens when students are paid their grants twice or when people receive grants they should not have received? I am happy to see that the interlinking with different Departments has eradicated a lot of cases in which people received grants they should not have received. How is this matter progressing? Will people be fined if they receive a grant erroneously? Are grants recouped? Are students asked to return the grant? What is the situation?
