Reviewing the progress through the video conferencing in the wake of distribution of 36,000 houses by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah by the end of this month, he said the CM would be launching the house distribution simultaneously across the state, and the key of the houses must be handed over to the beneficiaries on the same day. All works such as drinking water, UGD and electricity connection must be completed before February 20. Any failure in this regard would be viewed seriously and stern action would be taken against the officials concerned.
The minister said the target set for every scheme would be distributed and in case of any harassment from the contractors, the names of such persons must be shared so as to include them in the black list. Any problem that would arise due to negligence of the officials would not spared and they would be kept under suspension and hold them responsible.
