Resultantly, the government drew strong criticism from the opposition in the recent times.
Maintenance of state finances , monitoring state Municipal Administration and Civil Supplies without ministers left the state government already in a quandary.
" The preparation of new Municipal Act by the officials without minister brought disrepute to the government recently as Governor ESL Narasimhan raised objections and sent back the bill," leaders said and added that administration in several important wings like Education and Transport also came to a standstill due to lack of full time ministers.
KCR will accord all responsibilities to the ministers and streamline the administration within no time after the conclusion of the budget session.
" The chief minister wanted to give no chance to the opposition to nail the government on any issue and keep the administration on track in the next four years", a senior leader said and added the chief minister will review the performance of each department with the ministers concerned every month and check the anomalies found anything.
