CM Majhi pushes for capex growth to boost employment

BHUBANESWAR: Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi on Tuesday advised secretaries of all departments to expedite development projects and ensure that plan expenditure is made on time.

Chairing a meeting of all secretaries at Lok Seba Bhawan, Majhi emphasised on capital expenditure which will stimulate growth and create employment opportunities.

As the state government has a poor record in utilisation of budgetary allocations, Majhi underscored the need for augmentation of technical manpower in departments handling infrastructure projects. He also stressed on the importance of teamwork and proper coordination among departments.
