To ensure complete transparency and accountability, Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar on Sunday said that the concerned officers have been directed to shift the complete focus on product quality so that potential corruption can be eliminated.
While hearing the matter of corruption which was put forward in the meeting of the District Level Grievance Redressal Committee in Gurugram, Khattar announced that a Quality Assurance Committee will be constituted soon to ensure quality in the state’s engineering works. “Now corrupt people will be left with no space to carry out their wrong deeds,” he added.
Meanwhile, the government’s official spokesperson said that the State Government has created the Engineering Works Portal, which will increase transparency in the allocation of government projects. Now, the tender for construction work will be online, through which, the contractors will be able to fill their quotations and need not be required to meet officers back and forth.
“A mechanism has been developed in which the public can complain about the quality, corruption, mixing or sub-standard materials in the projects on a single portal. Preliminary inquiry will be done on that complaint and if anyone is found guilty, strict action will be taken as per government rules; and if required, that project will be rebuilt,” said the spokesperson.

Chief Minister said that under the State Government’s ‘Super-100’ programme, the children of economically weaker and needy families are also getting equal right to education with the Government providing free coaching for IIT and NEET. This has been a unique effort by the State Government to make career of meritorious students in the state, he said.
Spokesperson said that the Super-100 programme was launched in 2018, under which centres were set up in Rewari and Panchkula. The underprivileged meritorious students of Government schools are given free coaching in these centres to get admission in reputed institutes like IITs. Government school students who score more than 80 percent in Class X are given special coaching for JEE and NEET exams after qualifying a written entrance test and a special screening process.
Keeping in view the requirement of students in the current era, Haryana Government has recently launched the ‘e-Learning’ scheme through which, a revolution has been initiated in the field of education by distributing tablets to the five lakh students. “With the help of these free internet and Personalized Adaptive Learning (PAL) availability on these tablets, the students will not only crack their board exams with good marks but will also be able to prepare for NEET, JEE and other competitive exams. Apart from studies, they would also be able to enhance their other skills using this tablet,” said the spokesperson.
