The Minister for Water Resources, Children & Women Welfare and Registration Annapurna Devi held a review meeting with the officers of concerned departments at circuit house on Wednesday.
She queried about the schemes going on in the district and the hurdles coming in the way of the implemention of these schemes which are very old and several peoples’ representatives have raised questions in the Assembly on these schemes. After this meeting Annapurna Devi said that she had directed the staffs and officers of the water resource department to choose small but beneficial projects because the Hemant Government wants to do more in less time. On old projects like Konar Canal and others she said that I have also queried about the causes of delay and will try to remove the hurdles.
Annapurna Devi was more interested in the schemes for children and women. She directed the CDPOs to visit the Aanganwari Kendras regularly and to report her if any hurdle comes in their way to implement the schemes. She also enquired from the officials of district welfare department about the status of cycle distribution scheme, lakshmi ladli Yojna etc. During her short visit to Hazaribagh, she tried to gather more and more information about the functioning of the departments under her ministry. She also met the local leaders of RJD, Congress and JMM and said them to report if they find anything wrong. The district president of RJD Bhuvaneshwar Patel, State spokesperson Harish Srivastava, state youth RJD secretary Sanjar Mallick and others gave her a warm welcome at circuit house.
