Early Times Report
SRINAGAR, Sept 27: The Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti has asked Secretaries of all the departments to intensify crackdown on government employees who are found absent in their offices.
Sources said that the Chief Minister has taken cognizance of some official reports which say that there has been no visible improvement in attendance in some government offices in Kashmir valley.
Sources told Early Times that Mehbooba Mufti on Tuesday afternoon held a detailed meeting in civil Secretariat over the functioning of government offices in the state especially in the valley. "During the meeting it was informed that a large number of employees are not attending their offices, following which the CM instructed all the Administrative Secretaries to ask employees to report immediately to their duties, failing which action as warranted under rules should be initiated against them," sources quoting meeting said.
Sources said that Chief Minister said that onus lies on the Secretaries to ensure the full attendance of employees and make employees more work-oriented.
They further said that the CM has cautioned Secretaries against any "slippages" in this regard, "You should review the situation on a sustained basis. Even I am getting regular reports from my ministers that a number of employees are not coming to the offices," according to sources, CM said.
According to the government officials, since the unrest began in the valley on July 8, a large number of officials including several senior officers continuously prefer to keep away from their offices, while some from Kashmir have flown to Jammu without prior permission.
They said that the CM has also asked the authorities to constitute a Joint team of officials to keep a check on attendance of employees.
Sources said that the Chief Minister has also expressed displeasure about the non-installation and implementation of Aadhar Enabled Biometric Attendance System (AEBAS) in many offices across the State.
Sources also said that the CM has also asked all Deputy Commissioners (DCs) and superintendents of police (SPs) to remain punctual and give maximum time to redressing the grievances of people promptly.
They added that the Chief Minister has also directed that all key members of the bureaucracy including those serving in the secretariat or in the field including Commissioners, Deputy Commissioners, Directors should not leave their areas/jurisdiction without prior approval of the government.
They said that the chief minister, who is presently considering to make some key changes in the administration, has also desired to implement the development projects on schedule for which the CM wants clear-cut time lines to monitor the progress of development projects. |
