Government Employees To Have 5 Day Working Week : Chhattisgarh CM

Bastar: On the occasion of Republic Day, Chattisgarh  Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel taking to twitter announced major policy decisions, which included that government employees will be having a five-day working week. 

“In a bid to increase efficiency and productivity of government employees, Chhattisgarh government is implementing five-day working week. State government’s contribution in a pension scheme will also be increased from 10 per cent to 14 per cent,” said Mr Baghel in a tweet.

Taking to twitter he tweeted, “Today, on the auspicious occasion of Republic Day, I am sharing with you the important announcements made for the people of the state.”

Further in a series of tweet he announced that “Women Safety Cell” will be constituted in each district for women’s safety.

To encourage archery in the state, “Shaheed Gundadhur State Level Archery Academy” will be started in Jagdalpur.

By amending the industrial policy, 10% plots will be reserved for entrepreneurship development in other backward classes.

Chief Minister Urban Slum Health Scheme will also be started in all the urban bodies of the state.

Like urban areas, government leased land will be freehold in rural areas.

Human intervention will be freed from simplification of tap connection process.

The state government will also introduce legislation that will provide legitimacy to small Commercial activities being undertaken in Residential Areas. This shall benefit thousands of small businessmen who were otherwise living in a cloud of uncertainty.

All irregular constructions on private land shall be regularised subject to public safety norms. This is being considered a game-changer because many households have inadvertently violated the otherwise stringent provisions of the building code.

Chhattisgarh being a densely forested state, the livelihood of a majority of the tribal population is dependent on Forests. The Chief Minister today announced rules for these forest dwellers will be simplified.
