Minister for Local Self-Governments M.B. Rajesh on Wednesday inaugurated the ‘Vision Kattakada’ workshop to evaluate the progress of various projects being implemented in the Kattakada constituency, and to ensure timely completion and planning of future programmes. He said the efforts being taken up under Vision Kattakada should be a model for other regions across the State.
Representatives of the three-tier panchayats of the constituency and implementing officers of various departments participated in the workshop organised by the Kerala Institute of Local Administration (KILA). Mr. Rajesh said the uniqueness of ‘Vision Kattakada’ is that programmes are planned across all sectors aimed at overall development of the constituency.
He said the government is considering a comprehensive legislation related to waste disposal and management. Kattakada can set an example in waste management and sanitation with new ideas and projects that can be replicated elsewhere. He also praised the ‘Koottu’ project for a drug-free constituency being implemented in Kattakada.
