With agencies such asPWD,KIIFBandRKIundertaking multipleinfrastructure projectsand the lack of coordination between them delaying the execution of such projects, government has decided to augmentdistrict coordination committeesby christening them as theinter-agency linking body.
As per the GO issued in this regard last week, in addition to district coordination committees chaired by collectors that have been put in charge of all public work projects in the district, two state-level nodal officers were appointed for smoothening the task, putting them in charge of seven districts each.
Mission mode implementation of these projects is vital to reap the envisaged benefits of investments. But, it is seen that the progress of projects is affected due to the delay in making land available, land acquisition, utility shifting, survey, demarcation and lack of sufficient coordination between various authorities.
