We have dedicated video conferencing facility in all SDO and BDO offices, connecting district HQ. In some blocks it is connected upto GPs also, more GPs to be connected in few months. It is noted that despite Govt paying several lakhs per month for rentals, the facility is under utilised.
I have already started using the facility from last week. I shall request all the officers at district HQ to use the facility more frequently to interact with Block/ Subdivision level officers to review the schemes/ programmes. Monthly meetings with Block level extension officers/ field officers may be held through video conference to save time and travel expenses. It can be held in a group of three Subdivisions at a time. ADMs may hold conferences with PAAOs/ PDOs, Inspector BCWs, BWOs, CDPOs, BLLROs, ADOs on KCC/ fertilizers, Mid day meal officers to name a few as example. I have asked Webel to keep the facility reserved for Burdwan on Friday from 3 pm onwards. Those desiring to hold VC may keep district nodal officer informed giving the time requirement and names of SDO/ BDO points to be connected at least one day in advance.
Besides, there is dedicated hotline facility connecting all officers at Collectorate with BDOs/ SDOs and also other collectorates through VoIP facility. It is just like intercom but safe, secure and reliable telephone line. PoP operators have contact number directory. Please connect with each other on this facility which is not billed/ no expenditure incurred.
I feel that more frequent meeting of BDOs/ SDOs at district level should be avoided. More interaction on VC is advised.
It's begining.....
