Bihar 15 officers suspended: The old habit of postponing work among the administrative staff and making the general public visit offices has now started taking a heavy toll. A very strict appearance of Chief Minister Samrat Chaudhary was seen on the stage of the state level cooperation program. When the Chief Minister, who was sitting to provide solutions after listening to the pain and suffering of the people, found that many officers were suppressing important matters for a long time, his temper rose. Without any delay, he issued an order to suspend fifteen officers in one fell swoop. This straightforward decision has created a huge stir in the entire administrative system. The Chief Minister has told in clear words that the days of the employees who harass the public by sitting on the chair are over.
The biggest blow fell on the Revenue Department
It is often seen that the common man is most troubled in matters related to land and this time too the trend of complaints was in the same direction. This was the reason that the sword of suspension fell most heavily on the Revenue and Land Reforms Department. Nine officers and employees of this department alone have been suspended for laxity in work. These include the names of Munger's Haveli Kharagpur zonal officer Jai Prakash and Tetiya Bamber zonal officer Archana Kumari.
Today, in the state level cooperation program organized at 'Samvad' located at the Chief Minister's Secretariat, the problems of the common people were heard and necessary instructions were given to solve them.

Along with this, zonal officers like Sanjeev Kumar from Kodha in Katihar, Santosh Kumar Suman from Navgachia in Bhagalpur, Pankaj Kumar from Forbesganj in Araria, Ramesh Kumar from Bodh Gaya, Ranjit Kumar Upadhyay from Makhdumpur in Jehanabad and Priyanka Singh from Triveniganj have also been removed. Strict action has also been taken against Shubham Kumar, a revenue employee associated with Bajpatti of Sitamarhi.
Wreaked havoc on BDO and engineers also
The scope of the action was not limited only to the officers related to the land, but it also had a direct impact on the departments related to development works and infrastructure facilities. Block Development Officer Ravi Ranjan, posted in Ara Sadar block of Bhojpur district, was directly suspended. On the other hand, the laxity of the Public Health Engineering Department i.e. PHED also came to light. On the complaint of people not getting clean water and timely services, 4 engineers were sent home.

These include Assistant Engineer Rohit Kumar Dubey of Sheikhpura, Junior Engineer Bhola Nath Rai of Kudhani, Junior Engineer Shyam Babu Rai of Majholia and Junior Engineer Pawan Kumar of Sursand. Apart from this, Veena Vaishali, executive officer of the Urban Development and Housing Department, has also been removed from her post.
Now direct accountability for negligence
The cooperation program was actually started so that people coming from far away places do not have to wander to express their views. The Chief Minister repeatedly reiterated that the first priority of the government is to resolve every complaint within the stipulated time. When people spend months wandering for their smallest needs, it directly shows the failure of the administrative system.
The Chief Minister has given clear instructions that mere suspension will not be enough against those who are sitting with files stuck on the table, rather a full departmental inquiry will be conducted and their responsibility will be fixed. In the coming days, the work of officers of every district will be reviewed on the basis of how many complaints they have disposed of properly.
