Accountability
In a recent review meeting of Housing & Urban Development Department (H&UDD) Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir stressed on transparency and accountability.
He reviewed detailed project proposals and their current status, urging prompt action and accountability to drive visible progress.
Regarding the e-bus project under FAME-II and the PM e-bus Sewa scheme, he directed an increase in e-bus frequency on city routes and instructed that the routes be expanded to include key hospitals. “Citizens need reliable and accessible transport options. Connecting e-buses to hospitals and high-demand areas is essential for a responsive urban transport network,” he stated.
The meeting also included reviews of major urban development schemes such as CITIIS 2.0, AMRUT 2.0, PMAY (Urban), the National Urban Livelihood Mission, and the National Clean Air Programme. Abdullah encouraged the department to address bottlenecks in project implementation. “Efficient execution of these programs can transform our cities into cleaner, more sustainable spaces for all residents,” he said.
He reaffirmed his government’s commitment to a holistic and sustainable urban development approach, aiming for enhanced quality of life for all urban residents of Jammu and Kashmir.
