CM asks officers to implement policies in letter and spirit
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has asked officials to implement the policies of the government in letter and spirit so that the poor get the benefits of the schemes.
“The government has released budget for all major projects. Now it is the responsibility of officers to implement the policies so that the benefits of all projects reach the targeted people,” Yogi Adityanath said during a review meeting held in Lucknow on Thursday.
Yogi said that all districts had been provided infrastructure development projects which were at various stages. “Speed up the work so that Uttar Pradesh meets the SDG (Sustainable Development Goal) target set by the United Nations,” he said.
“During the review meetings, officials should also check utilisation of budgets released for the 2019-20 fiscal. The monthly review will give seniors a view of the progress of a scheme. Where utilisation is poor, officials should give special focus. Budgetary allocations should be passed in the first week of the month,” the chief minister said.
“The government has worked in all sectors. Farmers are getting good remunerative prices of their produce, the poor have been given free electricity connections, subsidised houses and gas connections. Just monitor that. Nodal officers should get feedback on the progress of projects during field visits and report it to the government,” he said.
Yogi also asked district magistrates and district police chiefs to meet people between 9:30 and 10:30 every morning.
The chief minister reviewed works of various departments, including Basic and Secondary Education, Irrigation, Power, Health, Food and Civil Supplies, PWD, Rural Development, Social Welfare, Panchayati Raj, Revenue, ICDS, Agriculture, Women Welfare, Urban Development, AYUSH, Industrial Development and Tourism.
