Visit to BDO Office Burdwan-I, my first visit to Block formally

I visited BDO Burdwan-I office today at 10.10 am. Met BDO and Jt BDO, Sabhapati Panchayat Samity and other officers working at Block Office. Some of the observations are :-

• Block Office is well managed and maintained. Officer and staff is dynamic and active.
• RHS family details have been incorporated in the database for aal GPs by DEO. Now, printing of list of addtional IGNOAPS, IGNWPS and IGNDPS is going on. Block assured to get additional proposals verified by GP shortly. Present coverage of IGNOAPS is approximately 2500, that can be further increased once additional beneficiaries are selected. Coverage of widow pension is good, but that of disability pension needs further improvement. Special composite camps to identify disabled is felt necessary. DSWO to organise the same.
• Payment of pensions is streamlined in most of the cases. However, disbursement of pensions for all pensioners up to March must be completed within this month. Similarly, disbursement of widow pension and disability up to March must be completed as soon as the fund is credited in the block accounts by end of this month. There are minor problems related to post office payments, that is being sorted out by the BDO.
• NREGA work is good, able to provide 59 days work to each household. But, total coverage of families has further scope for improvement. Convergence with Pisciculture, social forestry and water conservation has not taken up adequately. Efforts for IBS performance are not adequate. Payment delays are minimal and being taken care of by BDO. Block is advised to take up earth work of MPLADS, BEUP road schemes.
• Vacancies of BIO, TA are required to be filled up. Appropriate instructions given to District Official concerned.
• Overall fund expenditure position is good.
