Ensure cent per cent-ground-level implementation of the business reforms, directed Chief Secretary Aditya Prasad Padhi to concerned departments while presiding over a high-level meeting on Business Reform Action Plan for the year 2019 here on Thursday.

The departments were asked to issue strict guidelines to all the offices and agencies under their administrative control to ensure all the reform measures in their true spirit.

The Industry Department was also advised to organise sensitisation and orientation programmes for the officers working at the level of service delivery.

Departments were asked to create wide awareness among the prospective users about the online facilities and services available so that they can avail those services without running to the Government offices.

Chief Secretary Padhi directed to ensure online delivery of services regarding various clearances, permissions, no objections and licences within January 31.

The review revealed that on the whole 97.83 per cent of targeted business reforms have already been introduced in Odisha.

Hundred percent of the targeted reform has been introduced in the vital indicators like access to information, compliance to  environmental procedures, labour regulations, tax procedures, single window system, etc.

Three commercial courts have already been established at Khorda, Brahmapur and Sambalpur for quick disposal of business related cases.

Chief Secretary Padhi directed to make online systems for sanction of drug licence, trade licence, construction permits and registration of shops and commercial establishments.
