Meeting with Public Sector Allottees

Meeting with public sector allottees on 17 Feb 2017

I held a meeting with dozens of state / central govt officers yesterday at Hidco to review the progress of projects on plots allotted to them in New Town. There was full participation and senior heads of offices including Chief of Staff Coast Guard, Regional Passport Officer, Secretary Health and Family Welfare Department GoWB, National Security Guard, CPWD, BSNL, EPFO, Central Forensic Laboratory, DRDO, RITES, Netaji Subhas Open University, WB Council of Higher Secondary Examination, DVC, IFFCO, WBSEDCL, WBSETCL, WBPDCL, NTECSC,  Govt of Nagaland, Senior Superintendent of Post Offices, Balurghat Municipality, Murshidabad Zilla Parishad, Mayel Lyang Lepcha Board, Consumer Affairs Department and others reported progress. Except for few who had just completed possession formalities, all others had started doing plan preparation or plan sanction. Many had completed boundary walls. Some had called for tenders while few had given work others. a handful reported that their construction had been proceeding fast and would be completed within the calendar year. I requested all for accelerating their pace and to seek our help if required. For example, we gave a prototype template to one project manager on how to call for proposals for design on a competitive basis.

In the afternoon, I inspected the site of the second campus of Presidency University. A picture on my mobile:
