The meeting was attended by MLAs from 37 constituencies and senior officials of the department headed by Rai.

Rai said that in the current financial year, the department was entrusted with a total of 1,078 projects amounting to Rs 800 crores, out of which 376 projects have been completed while other projects are in various stages of completion.

The minister announced that the department successfully completed the de-silting of 61 drains totalling 400 kms. He explained that many of the projects were delayed due to scarcity of funds or non-receipt of no objection certificate (NOC) from the municipal corporations.
