Anini, Mar 7: Secretary (Border Management), Ministry of Home Affairs, Dr Rajendra Kumar, is on a two-day visit to Dibang Valley district to inspect various infrastructural and developmental projects being undertaken by the Ministry of Home Affairs in the border areas.
Chairing a review meeting regarding progress of projects under Vibrant Village Programme and roads under the ICBR project, the Secretary advised the departmental officials to ensure no procedural lapse occurs during project submission to the Ministry as it creates unnecessary hurdle in project execution and that the proposals be uploaded only through the prescribed channel of the Ministry.
