Early Times Report
JAMMU, Feb 24: Chief Secretary, Atal Dulloo, today chaired a meeting of Housing & Urban Development Department (H&UDD) to assess the household survey to be carried out by the Department in collaboration with the Planning Development & Monitoring Department for identification of houseless people in J&K.
Those who attended the meeting included Commissioner Secretary, H&UDD; Secretary, Planning; DG, E&S; MD, Housing Board; SIO, NIC and other concerned officers.
The survey would give a detailed idea about the eligible persons to be covered for providing housing units through different programmes under Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (Urban) 2.0 PMAY (U) in the UT.
During the meeting, the Chief Secretary emphasised upon the department to frame detailed guidelines for identification of eligible houseless people. He advised to share the same beforehand with all the Deputy Commissioners so that they are able to effectively monitor the process. He directed for working out requirement of manpower for carrying out this survey in urban areas of the UT. He asked to ensure that teachers are exempted from this duty as schools are going to open from March in the valley and board exams are also going on for secondary and higher secondary school students.
He directed for vetting the questionnaire together with the Planning Department so as to pose only relevant questions to the surveyed households and fetch information that is relevant and intended to be significant for this survey.
Dulloo underscored the need for one week training of the surveyors/investigators and building upon the YUVA survey application in order to make this exercise time bound besides cross checking the already collected information. He asked them to complete the survey in the month of March itself so that the process of identification and framing of merit list is accomplished well ahead of the set timeframe.
Dulloo also took note of the methodology of identification process contemplated by the Department.
The Chief Secretary sought suggestions from the Deputy Commissioners and asked about the timeline by which they can complete the exercise. He also had inputs from BISAG-N about the time they need to make necessary changes in the already developed YUVA survey app to make it relevant for this new survey.
