Priyanka urges Minister to fast-track approvals under PMGSY-IV
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, Wayanad MP, has urged Shivraj Singh Chouhan, Union Minister for Rural Development, Agriculture, and Farmers' Welfare, to direct the National Rural Infrastructure Development Agency (NRIDA) to fast-track approvals under the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana-IV (PMGSY-IV) in the district. In a letter to Mr. Chouhan, Ms. Vadra said that 331 unconnected habitations had been identified in Wayanad and approved by the Kerala State Rural Roads Development Agency. Among them, only 64 habitations in Kalpetta had been approved by the NRIDA and 267 others were yet to get the green signal on the Online Management, Monitoring and Accounting System (OMMAS). No habitation across Sulthan Bathery, Mananthavady or Panamaram blocks, with a significant tribal population, had been approved as yet though the PMGSY-IV guidelines stipulate that tribal villages in aspirational blocks would be prioritised. Meanwhile, 25 unconnected habitations had been incorrectly categorised as connected on the OMMAS as well. Ms. Vadra requested Mr. Chouhan to ensure that the NRIDA expedited approval for the pending habitations. She also urged him to allow the authorities in Wayanad to make necessary changes on the OMMAS software about the status of the habitations so that they remain up to date and accurate.
