He made these remarks during a comprehensive maiden review meeting of the Jal Shakti department convened by the Minister here at Srinagar.

Collaborative efforts are being ensured at all levels to move ahead in achieving the set goals”, he maintained.
He said that failures arise when we shy away from our responsibilities and work without coordination. “I have confidence in the system that we will overcome the challenges. The way officers of the department are working is quite laudable and praiseworthy,” he added.
