Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu asks CRDA officials to conduct a workshop to garner opinions of ministers and officials on the designs

Fosters + Partners submitted revised designs of Secretariat and other offices to Chief Minister at a review meeting at his residence in Undavalli on Wednesday. Representatives of the British firm told the Chief Ministers that final designees of Administrative City would be submitted by September 13.

Naidu told the CRDA officials to conduct a workshop for collecting constructive suggestions of ministers, secretaries and head of the departments over designs and provide the same to Fosters+ Partners, to enable them to make certain changes in the designs.

He suggested that the new buildings in Administrative City should reflected the modern lifestyle and dispel the present opinion on government offices that are old buildings with untidy atmosphere.

He also said modern facilities should be created to enable officials even clear files from their residence, if necessary. The Chief Minister also suggested all files should uploaded online and physical clearance of files should be a thing of the past.
