RAJOURI: Deputy Commissioner Rajouri Abhishek Sharma today chaired a meeting to review the progress of temporary restoration works on infrastructure and public assets damaged during the recent flash floods.
The Deputy Commissioner directed all departments concerned to submit accurate and comprehensive damage reports, ensuring no asset is reported more than once, with every report supported by geo-tagged photographs for transparency and verification.
Stressing durable restoration, the DC directed the departments to maintain the highest quality standards and adopt long-term solutions rather than repeated temporary repairs. He expressed concern over recurring proposals for temporary restoration of the same projects and asked the officers concerned to examine such cases carefully. To minimise the impact of future disasters, he instructed the departments to undertake plantations at vulnerable and erosion-prone locations as a preventive measure.
The Public Works Department was directed to conduct structural safety audits of all major bridges affected by the floods and ensure repair works meet technical standards. The DC also directed all departments to expedite restoration while adhering to the prescribed guidelines.
Among those present were ADDC Malikzada Sheraz Ul Haq, ADC Ravi Kumar Sihag, Superintending Engineer PWD (R&B) Manzoor Ahmed, CPO Maqsood Ahmed and Executive Engineers of PWD (R&B) Rajouri, Nowshera, Koteranka and Thanamand, besides other officers concerned.
