ITANAGAR, Dec 20: Deputy Chief Minister, Chowna Mein attending the 10th Arunachal e-Pragati meeting said more emphasis must be on the implementation part of the projects. He suggested to conduct monthly e-Pragati meeting at the district level too on regular basis by the Deputy Commissioners for monitoring and proper implementation of government projects and schemes by the departments. He informed that this year, the Arunachal government will utilise Central Sponsored Schemes worth Rs 5000 Crore in the State which is a quantum jump from the previous years.
He further called upon the departments to prepare correct Detail Project Reports saying that if we make a wrong or faulty DPR then the entire project goes waste. He said the public for which the schemes are implemented are not able to take benefits of some of the projects which are implemented based on faulty DPR made by some departments.
Informing that PM Narendra Modi lauded the Pakke Tiger Reserve 2047 Declaration on Climate Change Resilient and Responsive Arunachal Pradesh adopted by the state government during the conference of Chief Ministers and Deputy Chief Ministers at Varanasi, Mein appealed to implement it in true spirit to conserve the rich natural forest resources of the State. Arunachal Pradesh has been awarded with the Best State of the States Awards for Infrastructure and Governance in the small State category by India Today Group recently which the DCM attributed as the result of the dedicated hard work of all.
Informing that GI tagging for Idu Mishmi Handlooms & Handicrafts has already been made and GI tagging for many more indigenous products will be made, he called upon the concerned departments to work out modalities to facilitate marketing of the indigenous local products.
He further said that delay in clearance of pensions for the retiring Government employees is a major concern and all the departments have been directed by the Finance Department to prepare and complete all the documents and paper works before 6 months of the employee’s retirement so that their pension is cleared at the time of their retirement and retired employees do not have to run around.
He further said that an alarm system will be evolved by the Finance Department to remind the departments of the numbers of retiring employees in their departments for submission of the required documents and papers to the Finance Department before the retirement date well in advance. He further informed that another financial reform has been brought in by the State Govt to fast track the process of approving Administrative Approval and Financial Concurrence.
