Directive to officials

Mr. Satyanarayana asked Engineering officials not to delay check measurements for works completed in view of the allegation of contractors that the delay was deliberate.

He asked all the executive engineers to give a declaration in two days that no check measurements were pending with them. Committees have been set up to make random check of works and payment of bills and action would be taken for any discrepancy found, he warned officials.
