Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy has asserted that it is the responsibility of the officials concerned to ensure the effective implementation of the policies formulated by the Government in the larger interests of the people.
He said it would be the choice of the officials to decide whether they are willing to walk that extra mile in delivering the six guarantees to the last mile. “If it is difficult to work in the system, inform the Chief Secretary or the DGP. The Government has no objection to transfer them from their present postings. But, we will have objections if the officials want to continue in their posts without fulfilling the responsibilities cast on them,” he said.
The Chief Minister’s remarks assume significance in the backdrop of the functioning of the previous Government headed by the BRS when there has been no insistence on the officials to go to the field level to understand the ground realities in the implementation of the assurances to the people. “Orders of the Government must be carried out responsibly,” Mr. Revanth Reddy said in no uncertain terms during the conference of senior officials, district collectors and superintendents of police.
