Haryana Public Health Engineering and Public Works (Buildings and Roads) Minister, Sh. Ranbir Gangwa has issued special directions to officers of both departments, stating that ensuring uninterrupted drinking water supply during the intense summer season and accelerating road repair and construction works ahead of the monsoon are among the government’s top priorities.
He emphasized that officers should remain in the field as much as possible to ensure on-the-spot resolution of public issues. He also issued directions to Executive Engineers (XENs) and Sub-Divisional Officers (SDOs) in this regard.
The Minister also held communication with Deputy Commissioners across the State, emphasizing that officers of the Public Health Engineering and Public Works Departments are actively engaged in monitoring water supply systems, addressing complaints related to water scarcity, undertaking road repairs, filling potholes, and executing various ongoing development works.
He underlined that during this critical period, it is imperative for officers to spend greater time in the field to ensure that public grievances are resolved promptly and effectively at the site itself, thereby strengthening on-ground service delivery and enhancing public convenience. Sh. Ranbir Gangwa further said that Prime Minister, Sh. Narendra Modi has also advocated fuel conservation, reduction in unnecessary travel, and promotion of virtual meetings. Following this vision, the state government is also encouraging a technology-driven administrative system.
In line with this approach, he directed all Deputy Commissioners to conduct review meetings related to the Public Health Engineering and Public Works Departments through virtual mode wherever possible during the ongoing summer season. This will allow officers to devote more time to fieldwork, save administrative time and fuel, and further accelerate drinking water and road-related works.
The Public Works and Public Health Engineering Minister said that under the leadership of Chief Minister, Sh. Nayab Singh Saini, the state government is continuously working to strengthen public utilities, complete development projects in a time-bound manner, and provide relief to the common people.
