Dehradun, Oct. 1 -- Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Tuesday directed officials to speed up infrastructure and construction works across Uttarakhand, stressing that with the end of the monsoon season, departments must now accelerate execution on the ground. Chairing a high-level review meeting at his residence, Dhami issued clear instructions to the Public Works Department (PWD) to make all roads in the state pothole-free within the stipulated timeframe. He warned that negligence in construction and repair work would not be tolerated. "Reconstruction and repair of damaged roads should be taken up on priority. Departments must pay special attention to quality, particularly in areas where complaints are frequent," Dhami said. He directed that the ongoing Pothole-Free Roads Campaign be reviewed on a weekly basis and ordered that all patchwork be completed by October 31. The Chief Minister also stressed the need for strict monitoring to ensure accountability and timely completion of road projects. He asked senior officials to conduct field inspections and submit progress reports regularly. This year, the state suffered huge losses during monsoons. Uttarakhand government earlier this month had sought a special economic package of Rs.5,702.15 crore from the centre to compensate for the losses caused by this year's monsoon and to strengthen vulnerable infrastructure against future natural disasters. In a memorandum sent to the union home ministry, state government said that government departments have suffered direct losses worth Rs.1,944.15 crore due to landslides, flash floods, heavy rains, and related calamities between April 1 and August 31 this year. The public works department and rural roads sustained the maximum damage, amounting to nearly Rs.1,163.84 crore, while irrigation structures suffered losses of Rs.266.65 crore. Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his September 11 visit to the state announced financial assistance of Rs.1200 crore for Uttarakhand....
