Deputy Commissioner Harshal Bhoyar has said that officers of all government departments in coordination with the general public should put in efforts to ensure the overall development of the district.

He was addressing a programme in Yadgir on Wednesday.

Mr. Bhoyar said that district has been chosen, among others across the nation, by the Union government to be developed under the Aspirational District Programme.

“The district has climbed to the sixth place and Wadagera taluk is in the fifth place in the index targeted by the Union government for development. However, officers should put in more efforts in coordination with the general public to develop the district further,” he said.

He appreciated the officers for what they have achieved and distributed appreciation letters to them during the programme.

Chief Executive Officer of the Zilla Panchayat Lavish Ordia said that the efforts being made by ASHAs, anganwadi workers, teachers and various other departments have helped achieve this.

Superintendent of Police Pruthvik Shankar, Additional Deputy Commissioner Ramesh Kolar and others were present.
