JAIPUR: Chief minister Ashok Gehlot said that sensitive, transparent and accountable governance is the basic mantra of the state government and every officer and employee should work to fulfil this promise for the welfare of the people.
He directed to set up a separate cell in the personnel department, where cases of such officers and employees who are negligent in work and against whom complaints of corruption or habitual indiscipline are reported. The state government would ensure strict action against the guilty personnel. Gehlot was reviewing the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund, Silicosis Scheme, revenue matters and other issues related to the public including grievances received on the Chief Minister’s Office and Sampark Portal with the district collectors through a video conference.
The chief minister said it is generally seen that people have to travel long distances to settle small revenue disputes. He said that the district collector, SDM, tehsildar, patwari and other concerned officers and personnel should settle revenue cases in a time-bound manner with full sensitivity.
He said that the state government will soon undertake a campaign, ‘Prashasan gaon ke sang’ to carry out essential works of the common man on the spot. For this, the concerned departments should start preparations in advance.
Gehlot directed the officials to complete computerization of land records and online work of tehsils on priority. He said that based on the pilot project of Barmer, the process of land conversion should also be done online. He said computerization of land records should be flawless so that disputes related to revenue records do not arise in future.
Chief minister said delay in extending help from the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund in cases of accidents defeats the purpose of immediate assistance to the victim. He instructed that the district collector should aid the affected family with immediate effect. He also directed to take prompt action in pending cases of certification under Silicosis Scheme.
The chief minister directed to accelerate the construction of housing under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Gramin and make the state number one in the country. He expressed happiness that Rajasthan is fourth in the country due to successful implementation of the scheme.
