Dimapur, March 15 (EMN): Deputy commissioner, Mon, K. Thavaseelan has directed all Head of Departments (HOD) to remain in station and be present in person during the District Planning and Development Board (DPDB) meetings and cautioned that show cause notice would be served to those HOD who abstained the DPDB meet for two consecutive times.
The DC said this while addressing the monthly Mon DPDB meeting held on March 15 in his office’s conference hall.
He stated that any HOD leaving station must inform him in written and obtain prior permission. He stated that disciplinary action would be initiated against any HOD who goes out of station without prior permission.
The DC further informed that a discreet monitoring mechanism is in place to check on a daily basis whether a particular HOD is in station or not. He said such measures have been necessitated by the fact that many HODs were absent in departmental meeting called by the DC.
“Mon is one of the best places to work and as such there is no reason for a HOD to stay out of station unless there is an emergency,” he said. He reiterated that HODs have to be present in person for DPDB meetings and not sent their representatives.
Meanwhile, the DC thanked all the officers and employees of Mon district for the successful and smooth conduct of the 13th Nagaland Legislative Assembly elections 2018. He has accredited to the hard work and sincerity of the ROs/AROs, police, polling officers and the various teams in ensuring peaceful elections despite innumerable hurdles due to rain and pathetic road conditions.
The house resolved that the Verification Committee for LADP should submit the latest report on the progress of field works.
