| | Steps afoot to improve state’s developmental profile: Bhalla | | | JAMMU, July 8: Minister for Revenue, Relief and Rehabilitation Raman Bhalla has said the state Government was making all out efforts to improve the developmental profile of every corner of the State by creating modern infrastructure facilities, adding that people’s participation was vital for this purpose.
The Minister said this while interacting with the inhabitants of Haji Pura, Sanjay Nagar and Nanak Nagar after launching Rs. 51 lakh development works including upgradation of lanes, drains with grating facilities, here today.
Bhalla asked the JMC engineers to complete the works within prescribed time frame by using quality material. He said aim of the coalition Government was to upgrade the living standard of the people by providing all basic amenities like safe drinking water, electricity, health, education, road connectivity besides better lanes and drains.
The Minister said the Government has taken various innovative measures to improve the living standard of the people, particularly those residing in peripheries of urban centres. He said there was no constraint of funds for developing every corner on modern lines, adding that for this purpose central Government has provided liberal funding under various sectors. He said many more projects are in pipeline to provide succour to the people through developmental schemes.
Responding to the demand of Model Town people, Bhalla announced Rs. 1.96 lakh for construction of 30-meter long right side nallah embankment.
The Minister called upon the people not to put debris in drains and nallahs, adding that such practices not only create the problems for JMC authorities, but also become a hazard to the locality by choking the flow during rainy season. |
