Hyderabad, January 17: Chief minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy has evolved a multi-pronged strategy to take the state administration to the doorsteps of the people, particularly to those living in rural areas.
“What I want is a first-hand feed back from the people to help me implement these programmes effectively,’’ the chief minister said.
The chief minister, who is very particular to see that every rupee spent on various welfare schemes reaches the targeted beneficiary, wants to get a feed back before he goes ahead with his Rachchabanda programme intended to remove bottlenecks in implementation of programmes at ground level. This programme will be held between Jan 24 and Feb 12.
The chief minister will participate in as many ‘Rachchabanda’ and Prajapadham programmes as possible, and will also constantly monitor the 100-days special development programme to be launched in other parts of the state as well shortly.
Kiran Kumar Reddy along with senior ministers, chief secretary and other top officials will hold a video conference with district collectors in this regard on Jan 18 from the Secretariat.
The chief minister will embark upon the 100-day mission-plan throughout the state on the lines of the one that has been taken up in the state capital under GHMC area.
He will also participate in the Prajapadham programme.
“We should take the administration to the doorsteps of the people. They should be happy that here is a government that cares for them and eager to solve their problems. It is not just enough that we have a number of welfare programmes and innovative schemes. It is not enough if we spend thousands of crores of rupees on each scheme. What matters is that every rupee that we spend should reach the beneficiary,’’ the chief minister told the officials.
The district collectors will be asked to make all arrangements for the Rachchabanda programme. They will be asked to distribute temporary ration card coupons (over 5 lakh new ration cards will be issued) to the people during the programme.
As far as housing is concerned, beneficiaries of the 4.7 lakh houses started without sanction letters and which are at different stages of completion would be handed over the sanction letters during the programme.
The officials should also prepare a plan of action for providing infrastructure facilities in Indiramma colonies at the earliest.
The chief minister said all the pavala vaddi dues till March 2010 will also be cleared during the programme.
