Chief Minister, Jai Ram Thakur on Friday said the people of Himachal had lot of expectations from the government so it becomes the duty of the officers and officials to work with greater commitment to meet their aspirations.

Presiding over the review meeting to monitor the progress in Chief Minister’s announcements, Central schemes, e-mails, beneficiaries of Central/State schemes and 30 new schemes announced in the budget 2018-19, Thakur asserted that all the departments should set targets for themselves for implementation and execution of various developmental projects so that these could be completed within stipulated time period.

He said that it was a matter of great satisfaction that during the first 100 days of the state government, over 88 percent targets were achieved set by the government.
