During the meeting, the DC reviewed the status of critical infrastructure projects.

The progress of implementation and ground-level challenges was scrutinised to ensure timely delivery of benefits to the intended beneficiaries.
The DC placed special emphasis on fiscal performance, specifically reviewing the revenue generation departments. She also directed to expedite the process to meet the district’s revenue targets.
The DC further instructed all departmental heads to highlight specific issues where they foresee an inability to meet project deadlines. Officials were also asked to report difficulties in obtaining utilisation certificates for completed works.
