Minister Seethakka sets monthly targets for Panchayati Raj Dept
Hyderabad, June 17 (UNI) Telangana Minister for Panchayati Raj and Rural Development, Dr Dhanasari Anasuya Seethakka, on Tuesday directed officials of the department to set monthly targets and work systematically towards their achievement to ensure the timely implementation of development and welfare activities. Chairing a high-level review meeting here, the Minister reviewed the progress of ongoing schemes such as Mission Bhagiratha, Indira Mahila Shakti, Stree Nidhi, and the newly introduced HUM Policy for rural road construction. She also addressed pending employee issues and praised the efforts of departmental staff in delivering grassroots services, an official statement said. Minister Seethakka congratulated N Sridhar on taking charge as the Principal Secretary of the Panchayati Raj and Rural Development Department, expressing confidence that under his leadership, the department would scale new heights. She recalled Sridhar's contributions as the former Warangal Collector and CMD of Singareni Collieries, particularly in her own constituency, and said his appointment would strengthen interdepartmental coordination and help secure more funding for rural initiatives. She emphasised that the department, which represents over 2.5 crore people, should function like a family—from the minister to the multipurpose worker—working together with a shared vision of village development. Highlighting the importance of rural road infrastructure, the Minister stated that 18,472 kilometres of roads would be modernised under the HUM Policy, with 7,947 kilometres to be developed in the first phase. She added that Rs 1,800 crore worth of works had already been sanctioned and instructed officials to prepare an action plan to invite tenders within the next 15 days. The guidelines for the HUM project would be released shortly, and teams had been dispatched to Maharashtra and Karnataka to study best practices for effective implementation. Seethakka noted that rural roads, once neglected, would now surpass even urban roads in quality through this policy. She also announced that this year, 1,440 Gram Panchayat buildings and 1,440 Anganwadi centres would be constructed across the state—two for each mandal. These projects are expected to be taken up under a state-wide "Work Fair," which aims to generate employment while creating durable community assets. The Minister said that the government had resolved many staff-related issues since coming to power, including the regular payment of salaries to 93,000 village-level employees through the green channel. She further informed that the file regarding MPDO transfers was with the Chief Minister, and the vehicle allowance file had reached the Finance Department, with approvals expected soon. Principal Secretary N Sridhar, addressing the meeting, said that the Panchayati Raj Department plays a vital role in empowering rural communities and women through schemes like Indira Mahila Shakti. He said the department delivers essential services from the village to the district level and pledged to hold focused review meetings with each section to enhance overall performance. Sridhar urged everyone to work in unison to bring a good name to the government under the leadership of Chief Minister Revanth Reddy and Minister Seethakka. He assured full commitment to building a transparent, efficient, and people-centred department. UNI VV SS

Stamp duty waiver of 45cr for Dharavi project to lease rly land
Mumbai: The state cabinet on Tuesday approved stamp duty waiver of Rs 45 crore on sub-lease agreements between Dharavi Redevelopment Project (DRP) and Railway Land Development Authority (RLDA), as well as of Rs 186 crore on the conveyance agreement signed with the judiciary to set up a permanent campus of Maharashtra National Law University at Goregaon. RLDA has agreed to lease 47.5 acres of its land at Mahim to DRP for more than 30 years. So far, DRP has obtained possession of 28 acres. The land is to be used for railway staff quarters and offices, as well as for housing slumdwellers and residents of authorised buildings in Dharavi. Over 10,000 housing rehab units are proposed to be built on the plot. In a press release, govt said there was a proposal to include such sub-leases in the stamp duty concession policy so that the project's implementation could get a boost. Maharashtra National Law University currently operates out of a rented building at Powai. Govt has provided 35 acres to it in Goregaon for a permanent campus. The stamp duty is 5% of the ready reckoner rate of the plot, which is valued at Rs 3,100 crore, said officials. "The construction of the university's infrastructure in this new space will save on rental costs. Also, the students here will have access to educational facilities in one place," stated the release. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Coventry: If You Were Born Between 1945-1974 You Could Be Eligible For This British Seniors Read More Undo The cabinet also approved a 50% reduction in stamp duty, amounting to Rs 33 crore, on a special purpose vehicle agreement on 493 hectares required for a joint venture project of MMRDA and Raigad Pen Growth Centre Ltd. This would benefit housing projects on the land, said officials. Through the growth centre, govt aims at development of fintech companies, educational and healthcare facilities, amusement parks, affordable housing, commercial hubs, retail and construction sectors, thereby providing a large number of employment opportunities at the local level. "Apart from promoting foreign investment, there is a possibility of a large amount of stamp duty and tax revenue being collected in the state treasury from future commercial transactions. Against this backdrop, a proposal to waive 50% stamp duty was approved," said an official. In the last financial year, govt earned Rs 58,000 crore as revenue from stamp duty, and in the current fiscal, it is estimated to cross Rs 60,000 crore.

Sarangpur MBBS college foundation stone may be laid by year-end
Chandigarh: PGI is all set to expand its footprint and capabilities significantly, with the foundation stone for an MBBS college at its Sarangpur satellite centre expected to be laid by the end of this year. The ambitious project, detailed in a report submitted to the Union ministry of health and family welfare, aims at commencing MBBS admissions by the academic year, 2028-29. This will address PGI's manpower needs and foster a new generation of medical professionals. Confirming the development, PGI director, Prof Vivek Lal, said that the Sarangpur campus is a substantial undertaking of Rs 987 crore. He added that the campus would have a 100-seat medical college, modern outpatient departments (OPDs) capable of serving 16,000 patients, as well as a 200-bed emergency block. This expansion aligns with the government's push to increase the number of MBBS colleges across the country. Elaborating on other ongoing projects, Prof Lal provided timelines for operationalisation of various satellite centres and new facilities in PGI. The Sangrur satellite centre has 10 dialysis units and has performed 1,165 dialysis procedures since 2024, besides major surgeries, including cancer operations. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Can Nvidia Keep Up the Pace? Seeking Alpha Read Now Undo The Una and Ferozepur satellite centres are expected to become operational within a year. The issue of dedicated manpower for these centres is currently being reviewed by the ministry of expenditure. However, an issue has come up in the acquisition of high-cost diagnostic machines for the Advanced Neurosciences Centre. According to finance adviser Ravinder Singh, the Standing Finance Committee meeting found the cost of certain machines, such as a PET scan priced at Rs 75 crore, unacceptable, prompting a request to revisit the proposal. "We shall again revise the price and get this approved," Singh stated. Within the PGI campus, the Advanced Neuroscience Centre is awaiting a few clearances from the UT administration. Despite this, Prof Lal assured that the OPDs in the neuroscience centre would commence functioning by the first week of September, with diagnostic machines to follow. The Mother and Child Centre is projected to be operational in approximately six months. Notably, machines worth Rs 150 crore for this centre have already been procured through Infosys, with manpower for these new facilities remaining a key focus. MSID:: 121913361 413 |
