All block and DRDA officials have to maintain their tour details while visiting fields. They have to keep records of the time, date, destination and the purpose of their tour and all the details have to be displayed on a dashboard to be fixed up in the front wall of the block and DRDA offices.
The Panchayati Raj Department has issued a circular in this regard for all employees of the department. Besides, it has been made mandatory that the public grievances would be addressed every Saturday. And all officials cannot leave the headquarters on the same day.
All this has been decided because the Panchayati Raj Department is implementing welfare programmes which relate to providing of direct service to the beneficiaries. The department has also designated officers for each district who would visit remote pockets of the districts at least once in a month and give feedback to the department’s Secretary for appropriate action.
A strategy has been evolved for a monthly review of the progress. For this, the dashboard monitoring system is introduced where some colour code has been inducted to evaluate the officials’ performances. A district doing fairly well with the score 80 to 100 marks would be given a green colour code, a district with 60 to 80 marks would be given light green, the one with 40 to 60 marks would get yellow, those with 20 to 40 marks would be given pink and the ones with 0 to 20 marks would be coloured red as devised by Secretary Aparajita Sarangi.
The review system would be scaled up to the district level gradually and the Collectors would be provided with coloured maps with 50 parameters which itself would reflect their performances in the field.
Steps are also being taken to beautify the block and gram panchayat offices with a provision of adequate financial assistance for the purpose. Panchayti Raj Minister Kalpataru Das has directed that guidelines be prepared and circulated to all block and districts to utilise the funds provided under the scheme of devolution to the Zilla Parishads.
