DC reviews status of development projects

Deputy Commissioner Jitendra Jorwal reviewed the progress of ongoing and completed development projects in the district here on Saturday.

He directed the officials concerned to submit utilisation certificates (UCs) for all completed works without any further delay.

Chairing a meeting with SDMs, executive officers, block development and panchayat officers (BDPOs), and other officials concerned, the DC stressed the importance of initiating work on various development projects for which approvals had already been issued.

He emphasised that timely completion of these projects was essential to provide necessary facilities to the people.

Accompanied by ADC (Development) Amarjit Bains, Jorwal took stock of the ongoing construction works, including libraries, kitchen gardens in rural schools, pond cleaning and projects under MPLAD in various parts of the district.

He urged the officials to prioritise the use of quality materials in the construction and ensure timely project completion.

He said he would conduct a weekly review of the projects on a regular basis and no lapse by officials would be tolerated at any cost.
