Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said that in view of Covid-19, all departments will play an important role in reviving economic prosperity and bringing back the economy on track. For this, it is necessary that every minister should discuss and form a draft of the role of his department in Atmanirbhar Madhya Pradesh.
According to this roadmap, the monthly, quarterly and half yearly targets should be worked out. Ministers should also conduct departmental review. This review is to be conducted in the month of July itself. Even after this, a review will be conducted every month.
Presiding over the meeting of the Cabinet, Chouhan said that in order to give shape to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s mantra and his call for Atmanirbhar Bharat, the ministers should make efforts to implement them at the departmental level. For this, discussions can be held with scholars, experts and leading organizations. The role of the department should be deemed important after receiving their suggestions. Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that on July 22 and 23, he himself will hold one-to-one discussion with the ministers.
Chouhan said that it is important to celebrate Independence Day on August 15, 2020 in the presence of limited persons. The national flag should be hoisted in offices while maintaining social distance. The Independence Day celebration should be symbolic. The tradition of inviting children and including them in the programme should be postponed this year.
The Chief Minister said that the ministers must keep a close watch on the activities of their department. Any information related to the department from any source, should be probed in depth by the minister. If a wrong fact is also published in the newspaper, then counter it. The Minister should constantly keep an eye on the constraints of implementation of departmental schemes.
Chouhan has instructed the ministers to conduct departmental review this month. Chouhan will also review the departments in August.
