   Development and Panchayati Raj Department

* Emphasis on proper management of human resources and increased use of technology

 

Pune, 26th: The Rural Development Department has performed commendably under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana, and the Centre is set to approve an additional 10 lakh houses. After approval, efforts must be made to provide land and ensure that no individual remains homeless. Through this, Maharashtra should become the country's first homeless-free state, appealed Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis. He also called for better management of human resources and greater use of technology to make the administration more people-centric and dynamic.

 

The Chief Minister was speaking at a state-level Panchayati Raj workshop organized by the Rural Development and Panchayati Raj Department at YASHADA. The event was attended by Rural Development and Panchayati Raj Minister Jaykumar Gore, Minister of State Yogesh Kadam, Principal Secretary Eknath Dawale, YASHADA Director General Niranjan Sudhanshu, and the Chief Minister’s Secretary Shrikar Pardesi.

 

Chief Minister Fadnavis emphasized that developing human resources is essential for effective governance. He urged the efficient use of available manpower and the establishment of systems that understand and utilize advanced technology. Good ideas from other regions should be adopted. The insights gained from the workshop and the experiences of senior officers would help make the administration more citizen-centric.

 

Under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana, homes approved should be connected to solar energy from the very first day through the ‘Pradhan Mantri Suryaghar Yojana’. Officers should work towards mobilizing manpower and funding through various schemes for this effort, he said. He also expressed confidence that this initiative would create employment opportunities.
