In continuation of the efforts being undertaken by the Government of Jharkhand to facilitate entrepreneurship and investment by improving the Ease of Doing Business, a review meeting was chaired by Chief Secretary Rajiv Gauba here on Monday. Departments were assigned tasks for creating a more conducive and better business environment.
The CS asked the industry department to organize workshops in different locations where departments can represent and explain the recent initiatives undertaken for stakeholders and enable them to take full advantage of the simplified rules and online processes. He said that all departments shall also hold workshops with their officers to sensitize them about the new regulations in place.
To capitalise on the Single Window system launched by the Industry Department earlier this year, he directed to depute a senior officer of principal secretary rank in charge of the single window system who will be authorised to give clearances for all the departments. This will allow one application, one clearance and one signature policy of clearances to be truly implemented.
He said that the single window will have officers from various departments deputed to enable quick processing of clearances and assist the principal secretary of industry department.
After approval by HoDs and notification issued by the State Government, he directed all Head of Departments to ensure and enforce surprise inspections.
Gauba said that the Right to Service Act shall be enlarged with introduction of 95 new services, which shall be given a timeframe and statutory backing to further facilitate time-bound citizen centric governance. This is to be completed by the end of the month.
