The Principal Secretary Municipal Administration Arvind Kumar asked the GHMC engineers to ensure that all the preventive periodical maintenance works are completed at the earliest. All the works relating to footpath construction, road widening and laying of cement concrete roads should be expedited without compromising on quality, he added.
Mr. Kumar today held a meeting with the GHMC officials of Khairatabad circle and took stock of the progress achieved in the various works taken up. He stated that all the works should be completed by the end of October. He said that while lying of BT roads and re-carpeting should be done after monsoon, the process of calling tenders and issuing of letter of award should be completed during the monsoon period.
He asked the assistant engineers who are on the field should necessarily wear the jacket. He also suggested the engineers to conduct a meeting with the ward members and the members of resident welfare association and have a quick feedback to find out whether any work relating to emergency restoration work is missing from the list identified by the officials. All the works identified by the officials and also the works relating to repairs and patch works suggested by the resident welfare associations should be taken up immediately. The pictures of the works before and after completion of the work should be posted on twitter. He observed that the social media should be used as a tool to highlight the positive works done by the engineers. He told the Dy EEs to work closely with the people so that all their genuine grievances are addressed.
The GHMC Commissioner Janardhan Reddy, Additional Commissioner Bharati Holikeri and Chief Engineer Ziauddin attended the meeting. Earlier the Principal secretary planted a sapling in the zonal office.
