Joint Secretary in the Chief Minister’s Office Pramod Kumar Tiwari on Tuesday ordered to stop payment of salary to Chatra District Education Officer and Nodal officer for Jan Samvad. The decision was taken after it was found that the officials were delaying probe in a case relating to a person doing a job through forged matriculation certificate. Tiwari ordered to stop the salaries of the officers till they submit the probe report.
The case relates to one complaint filed with the Jan Samvad centre that one Gurudayal Yadav, peon of DC Chatra was enjoying his job on forged matriculation certificate. Despite the complaint being filed on December 9, 2016 probe and action in the case was found negligible.
As many as 14 complaints were reviewed during the weekly review meeting CM Jan Samvad Kendra chaired by PK Tiwari on Tuesday. On the complaint of farmer Pradeep Kumar of Chatra of not getting money despite selling paddy to PACS, order was given to make him payment at the earliest. In Dhanbad a permanent structure was asked to be raised at Purana Bazaar area to ensure that encroachment do not take place further.

Also orders were given to executive magistrate in Chhatarpur of Palamu where at a primary school in Patsara the mid day meals are closed since a year.
