Pointing out that Haveri district has remained backward in several aspects, including human development, health, income and education, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Tuesday directed the officials to initiate the requisite steps for the overall development of the district.
Chairing a review meeting of various departments at the Zilladalita Bhavan in Haveri, the Chief Minister also said that he will come back again to review the progress and wanted the officials to act.
Mr. Siddaramaiah called upon the officials to chalk out a plan for employment generation as the district is mainly dependent on agriculture and animal husbandry. As small farmers are in majority in the district, without a proper action plan for employment generation, things will not improve, he said and directed the Deputy Commissioner of Haveri to prepare an action plan.
