Irrespective of whether funds were received for a work from the government, the officials should ensure that the work was expedited in a time-bound manner, Member of Parliament R. Sachidanandan of CPI(M) said here on Thursday.
Speaking at the DISHA (District Development Coordination and Monitoring Committee) meeting, the MP said the objective was to deliver the benefits to the common man. By completing the development work in time, it would help the public in a big way.
Delay in any form would not only cause inconvenience to the public, but also bring down the image of the administration. Moreover, with rising costs of building material, the officials should be conscious of fulfilling the work on time and should not postpone or delay at any cost, Mr. Sachidanandan said.
The officials said that due to digitisation, the district administration had cleared all the applications received for patta transfers. Giving details, they said that the land survey department had received 85,806 applications between April 1, 2022 and March 31, 2023. All the applications had been processed.
