JAMMU, Aug 14: Impressing upon all Administrative Secretaries to personally ensure that there are no changes in the scope of any work after its commencement, the Government today warned that any deviation in this regard shall be viewed seriously and invite disciplinary action.
A circular in this regard was issued today by the General Administration Department, in reference to Administrative Council decision, dated July 24, 2021.
“It has been observed that Detailed project Reports, after their vetting from the Competent Authorities, have many times been revised by the departments after allotment of these works to contractors, thereby changing scope of the work, which is violation of the General Financial Rules, 2017, a matter which has been viewed seriously by the authorities,” reads the circular, adding that such practices need to end forthwith and all departments need to ensure proper processing of infrastructure projects before their commencement so as to avoid recurrence changes in the scope of works subsequently.
