Shimla DC directs officials to maintain detailed records of panchayat projects

Shimla Deputy Commissioner (DC) Anupam Kashyap today reviewed various ongoing development projects in Gram Panchayat Taklech, Rampur subdivision, via video conferencing and directed all officials to maintain proper records of these projects at the panchayat level. He also stressed the need to ensure that the benefits of government schemes reach every eligible beneficiary.

“Development is incomplete without the activeness and accountability of field officials,” he said.

The DC reviewed the progress of schemes such as MGNREGA, Mukhyamantri Gramin Awas Yojana and other developmental works from the Panchayat Secretary. He also held detailed discussions with the Panchayat Pradhan on ongoing projects, pending schemes, losses due to heavy rains and other local issues.

Highlighting that Taklech is a disaster-prone area, he said, “Only when field officers are well-informed about every detail can the overall development of society be truly achieved.”
