During the meeting, the Deputy Commissioner directed the sectoral officers to incorporate only feasible and need-based works in the Capex Plan so that projects can be executed efficiently and within the prescribed timelines. “Unrealistic or non-viable proposals should be avoided and priority must be given to works with tangible public utility and long-term impact,” he emphasized.
The DC stressed the importance of taking the elected MLAs on board while framing the plan so that developmental priorities of the people are adequately reflected and aligned with public expectations. He asked the officers to maintain close coordination with public representatives to ensure transparency and better planning outcomes.

The Deputy Commissioner laid special emphasis on early submission of departmental proposals for final approval, stating that timely planning is crucial for effective utilization of funds and prompt commencement of developmental works during the financial year.
He called upon all departments to work in a coordinated manner and ensure that the Capex Plan serves as a practical roadmap for inclusive and sustainable development across the district.
