State Launches Maha-AASTHA to Digitise Employee Records
Nagpur: The Maharashtra government has launched a time-bound drive to bring every service record of state employees online through its new e-HRMS platform, Maharashtra Advanced Administrative System for Transparent Human Resource Administration (Maha-AASTHA).
The initiative aims to enhance transparency and efficiency in maintaining government staff data, from appointment formalities to retirement benefits.
According to a Government Resolution (GR) issued on June 20, all departments at Mantralaya must establish dedicated Maha-AASTHA cells by June 27. Each department is required to appoint a nodal officer (SPOC) and submit their contact details to the general administration department (GAD) by June 30.
These cells will function as control rooms to oversee the transition from paper-based service books to fully digitized records.
Updating service records has been made mandatory. All details—such as appointments, transfers, promotions, training, leave history, pension nominations, and disciplinary actions—must be uploaded to the digital service books by July 15. Officials have also been instructed to physically sort and clean old records to facilitate scanning in the next phase.

Departments must prepare an organogram (staff structure) and ensure that all employees have active government email IDs. Weekly progress reports must be emailed to the GAD every Monday.
Officials clarified that this is not just a digitization initiative, but part of chief minister Devendra Fadnavis' 150-day administrative agenda, building on the earlier success of the 100-day plan. The goal is to eliminate delays in employee service processes through streamlined digital workflows.
While the initial phase targets the Mantralaya departments, the plan is to eventually expand it to every government office across Maharashtra. Departments have been warned that non-compliance or delays will be taken seriously.
The state government expects the initiative to ultimately benefit over seven lakh employees, but for now, the pressure is on departments to clean up decades of paperwork and ensure no data is left behind before the July deadline.

1 2 3 Bhubaneswar: To ensure timely allotment of units to urban poor in affordable housing projects, the Bhubaneswar Development Authority (BDA) and Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation (BMC) have decided to collaborate with a focus on people staying in different transit houses in the city.

State ropes in two IITs for audit of long bridges
1 2 3 4 Patna: The road construction department will assess the health of all bridges across the state to determine their structural condition and plan maintenance accordingly. The initiative, under the newly approved bridge maintenance policy, includes the development of a comprehensive bridge health index (BHI) and the placement of QR codes at bridge sites for public access to structural data. The department will soon sign a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with two IITs to conduct third-party audits of bridges longer than 250 metres. The audits aim to identify vulnerabilities using modern technologies and prevent accidents or disruptions due to bridge damage, which often leads to economic and human losses. Speaking to TOI over the phone, road construction minister Nitin Nabin said all bridges would be subject to regular inspection and maintenance. "Data will be collected using advanced tools such as visual inspection, non-destructive testing (NDT), sensors and drone cameras. Each bridge will be assessed for its BHI and maintenance priority index (MPI) and a health card will be prepared," he said. According to Nabin, the department has built 3,968 bridges over the past 18 years, including 532 major bridges, mega bridges and flyovers. Maintenance activities will be categorised under seven heads – initial rectification, regular/ordinary maintenance, periodic maintenance, minor improvement, special repair, exceptional repair and unforeseeable repair. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Memperdagangkan CFD Emas dengan salah satu spread terendah?

He also said QR codes would be installed on signboards near bridges to allow public access to their maintenance history. "Anyone can scan the QR code and get details about the bridge's upkeep," Nabin said. The department will engage IIT Delhi and IIT Patna for auditing bridges over 250 metres. An MoU is set to be signed next week. IIT Delhi will assess 40 bridges in north Bihar while IIT Patna will audit 45 bridges in south Bihar. Both institutions will also prepare cost estimates for necessary repair work, which will be executed by Bihar Rajya Pul Nirman Nigam Limited under the Bihar State Bridge Management and Maintenance Policy, 2025.
