The Deputy Commissioners were directed to take special initiative and ensure the availability of land on time. The Department of Drinking Water and Sanitation informed that the situation of connecting every house through Nal Se Jal Yojana and declaring villages ODF by constructing toilets is almost in the final stage, but the scheme remains incomplete due to four-five houses in the villages not being covered by this scheme. The CS asked the DCs to take extra interest and complete this work as soon as possible.
The Higher and Technical Education Department informed that there is a problem of land for the construction of degree colleges, polytechnic colleges and government engineering colleges in various districts.
