Taking tough action against government officials, who are found to be negligent in discharging their duties, Chief Minister Raghubar Das today ordered to dismiss District Superintendent of Education (DSE), Palamu and take strict action against BEO Chatarpur. While holding the ‘Seedhi Baat’ programme at Suchna Bhawan in here on Tuesday the CM directed the School Education and literacy Secretary to fix responsibility on every officer of district and provide them diary to keep account of their daily activities.
The CM took the strict step on a complaint over suspension of Mid Day Meal at Nav Prathmik Vidyalay, Patsara, Chatarpur, in Palamu district. On the occasion he expressed concern over trivial issues coming to Jan Samvad Centre and asked DCs of all 24 districts to regularly hold talks with common people in order to solve their issues. He said that DCs and SPs should take a two-hour small break from regular work and sort out small problems of the common masses.
Das also directed to take strict action on a Special Division Engineer of Palamu in connection with not completing the proposed cricket stadium. He also directed the DC to send the report to Sports Department in a week. He said that the people who waged movement for separate Jharkhand were felicitated on August 15, 2015. But they are not being given any pension. The CM directed the secretary to get it approved and initiate it. Regarding no payment to teacher of Upgraded High School, Dhaab Chandrashekhar Prasad from August 1, 2015, the CM directed the DC to probe the matter in a week and pay the pending payment.
Another complaint pertained to getting subsidies in the names of Gopinath Singh Mahila Mahavidyalay and Gopinath Singh Inter Mahavidyalay which are being run in a single building. However, the college gets subsidy on both the names. The CM took it seriously and asked Higher and Technical Education Secretary and School Education Secretary to probe the matter jointly and submit the report in 15 days. He also asked the applicant to reveal other corruption issues also.
In connection with irregularity in construction of road from Murchu more to Banapiri Jamun More at Ratu block, the CM directed to send a team and probe the matter seriously. He said that official formalities should not be done in the name of probing.
In connection with auction of mortgaged asset by UCO bank, Dhanbad, Jagia Devi deposited Rs. 10 lakhs in the bank along with necessary documents. But even after six years of submitting the money, she has not been given possession. The CM directed the DC to depute police force on Tuesday itself and give her possession.
He also said to crackdown against corruption. He was told by the department that panchayat Secretary, rojgar sevak and mate should be issued notice for recovery in connection with irregularity in soil road construction in Simdega. He also said that matters related with mukhiyas should be reviewed every month at the HQs.
