Rent Assessment
Recently DC Kupwara chaired Rent Assessment Committee meeting.
In order to finalize the various Rent Assessment Cases of the buildings under-utilization of different Government Departments, a meeting of the District Rent Assessment Committee (DRAC) was held under the chairpersonship of Deputy Commissioner (DC) Kupwara.
During the DRAC meeting, as many as 37 rent cases of buildings presently used by Government Departments including School Education, Handicraft & Handloom, Social Welfare, Food Civil Supplies and Consumer Affairs, Health, Skill development, Ayush, R&B, Department of Libraries and Research, Medical College and Police Department were put forth before the Committee for fixing of monthly rent.
The Committee deliberated on all the rent assessment cases in detail and each case was examined thoroughly keeping in view various administrative and other necessities.
On the occasion, out of the total 37 cases, 27 cases were approved while 10 other cases were scheduled to be put up again due to some technical deficiencies.
The DC impressed upon the Officers to ensure that vacant govt. buildings are occupied for official purposes and rented accommodation remains the last option.
She emphasized that government buildings should be constructed by concerned departments on priority.
