Fill all potholes in Moradabad div: CM

Lucknow: During a review of Moradabad division on Friday, CM Yogi Adityanath said the revenue collection from the five districts of the division — Moradabad, Rampur, Amroha, Sambhal and Bijnor — has been extremely low and asked the administration to ensure that no illegal mining took place in these areas.
The CM has directed authorities to ensure that all roads in the division are free of potholes before Navaratra.He said that work should start immediately after monsoon. While reviewing projects of over Rs 10 crore being implemented in the five districts, the CM said that officers should release money for pending projects so that works do not suffer.
Comparing the districts to Sonbhadra, which he said is a backward district, Yogi said that because the district administration was proactive in giving mining leases on time, the district generated additional revenue this year, despite the pandemic. He asked the five districts to follow its example. Yogi also directed authorities to finish all pending works under the Moradabad Smart City Project. He said clean drinking water to all households was extremely important for all districts and the government would ensure funding for it.
