KCR calls for ideal utilisation of human resources

Hyderabad, Feb 5 (Maxim News): Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao here on Sunday urged district administrations in the State to ensure optimum utilization of the hitherto untapped vast human resources available in rural and semi-urban areas to put equitable development and progress on the fast track.

KCR  has reiterated that the government programmes should be implemented more effectively through the new districts, formed for decentralization of administration, better governance and for the convenience of the people.

The Chief Minister has asked the officials to study each and every family, their living standards, identify the poor among them and design exclusive programmes for their benefit.

In his inaugural address, the Chief Minister has showered praises on Collectors of the newly formed districts. “The new districts should be stabilised faster. Collectors are working well. You are visiting hospitals and hostels. You are actively working to find solutions to the problems and issues. I am happy with your performance. I am confident that if you continue to work with the same confidence, we will achieve our goals well ahead of the schedules. You are providing leadership at the district level. You’re an inspiration to the administration. Under your able guidance officials should work more effectively,” the CM urged the gathering.

“There is a wonderful human resource in Telangana State. Identify the human resource and encourage it. The artisans from Jangoan-Pembarthy and the filigree Artists from Karimnagar are world famous for their artistic skills. Such artistic skills are there in abundance in every region in the State. Identify and encourage them,” the CM advised.

“Telangana State stood number one in the country by registering 19.5 per cent growth rate. This is possible due to the uninterrupted power supply being given in the State. We will continue this growth rate in future too. The financial resources that are accrued should be used to develop the human resource. Study and understand the ground level situation in towns and villages and take measures to eradicate the poverty,” the Chief Minister explained.

“Our state has more rural region. Special focus should put on strengthening the rural economy. Identify human resource through Resource Mapping. There are 25 lakh Yadavs in the State. They have expertise in Sheep rearing. There is no need for them to get trained. This is the reason why we have decided to give more encouragement to sheep breeding. It is painful that though we have 25 lakh sheep breeders, we are importing 500 truckloads of sheep from the neighbouring states. A stage should come wherein our state start exporting the sheep and this will strengthen our rural economy. A new Sheep rearing policy should be announced in the state and the officials should get prepare for this,” the CM said.

CM remark evokes laughter:

“For us all Sheep and Goats look alike, but only a Yadav can identify each and every one of them in the flock. He will be able to notice even if one sheep or goat is unwell and will take it for the treatment. In villages, people give their Sheep and Goats to Yadavs to take care of them. Once the Sheep comes to a certain age, the Yadavs will return it to the owner. Their experience is their education. Such expertise will not be there for a person even if he is an IAS,” the CM said in a lighter vein, which evoked peels of laughter from the gathering.

“Fish breeding should be done on a large-scale. Water is brimming in the lakes and ponds due to Mission Kakatiya programme. These water resources will be ideal for fish breeding. Utilise the water available at several barrages and reservoirs planned in the state for fisheries. Prepare a comprehensive action plan for fish breeding at all the barrages, reservoirs and tanks. Many new methods and techniques are available now, utilise the,” the CM said.

Hitech hair Cutting Saloons:
“Hair Dressing Saloons in the rural areas need a make over. Hitech hair Cutting Saloons should be available in the rural areas. The government will provide financial help in this regard. With latest Saloons, there will be a make over in the villages too. The existing practice of doing hair cut, shaving under the tree or on a road side should be done with,” the CM said.

“In our state’s population, SCs constitute 16-17 per cent and STs 10 per cent. Women constitute 50 per cent. SCs were kept outside the village and STs were confined to their Thandas or Gudems. The women were confined to the kitchen. About 75 per cent of human resource is thus wasted. Ours is the only country in the world, which is not utilising the human resource to such a large extent. We have to get rid of this malady. Women, SC and STs should be encouraged. Don’t waste the human resource. Special funds will be provided for the STs and Dalits. We will offer carry forward facilities to these funds. These funds will be spent through SC/ST departments. What kind of plans to be made for these sections, how to utilise the funds and for those living in rural, urban and semi urban, these issues to be tackled by you. Prepare district-wise plans for SCs/STs. All proposals from the district should come before we present the State’s Budget in the Legislative Assembly. Encourage people in Agriculture, Self-employment, Industries and other fields and prepare plans for empowering them,” the CM asked the Collectors.

Residential Schools:

“We are launching on a massive scale residential schools for the SCs, STs, BCs and Minorities in the State. Identify lands for the setting up of these instructions. Take measures make the residential schools as hub to create better future generations. BCs are large in number in the state. The government is ready to take measures to help fish and sheep breeding and other hereditary professions. Plans are afoot to set up hygienic Laundries, Hitech saloons and other such activity. The state government has commitment towards BCs, other hereditary professions. Special officers will be appointed in the CMO to coordinate these programmes and activities,” the CM declared.

Government’s Chief Advisor Rajiv Sharma, Chief Secretary SP Singh, Government Chief Whip Palla Rajeshwar Reddy, MLAs Kanakaiah, Venkateshwarlu, Principal Secretaries from various departments and other senior officials were present at the meeting. (Maxim News)
