The CAG also has the power to audit the accounts of private companies that have been contracted by the government.<\/p>\n<p>The CAG&#8217;s role is to ensure that public money is spent in a legal, efficient, and effective manner. The CAG does this by conducting audits of government departments, ministries, and other public bodies. The CAG&#8217;s reports are tabled in Parliament, and the government is required to take action on the CAG&#8217;s recommendations.<\/p>\n<p>The CAG is an important safeguard against corruption and financial mismanagement in the government. The CAG&#8217;s reports have often led to major reforms in the way that the government spends money.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>a) Preparation of Assam&#8217;s budget is the responsibility of the Assam Finance Department.<\/li>\n<li>c) Implementation of fiscal policies is the responsibility of the Ministry of Finance.<\/li>\n<li>d) Collection of taxes is the
