Providing a major relief to Heavy Engineering limited (HEC) the State Cabinet on Tuesday approved availing its pending power dues with Jharkhand Bijli Vitaran Nigam limited (JBVNl).
A decision in this regard was taken which would allow passing the dues under the head of ‘delay payment surcharge’ with the HEC levied during the period of September 1, 2008 to March 31, 2010. As per the decision now the JBVNl would get the due of `116.42 crore adjusted against its loan and interest payable to the Government.
Also, the Cabinet amending a circular issued on September 2, 2016 has authorised SPs to announce reward up to `1 lakh, DIGs up to `2 lakh and IGs and ADGs up to `5 lakh for catching any notorious terrorist or naxalite. Also at a time such rewards can remain announced to maximum 400 such criminals.
The Government also simplified immovable property registration and marriage registrations process. Now NRIs, Overseas Agencies of India or Persons of Indian Origin residing outside the country who do not have their Aadhaar numbers need not require it and get that authenticated through their other government document numbers such as passport.
Such persons can put in their passport, OIC or any other ID issued by concerned country with self-attested documents. Mobile OTP facility has also been made acceptable for such persons whose Aadhaar authentication could not be done due to some illness or iris and fingerprint non-verification. The Cabinet also revised estimate of health sub-center at Dahuri of Chatra which would be `34.19 lakh.
