He also stressed the need for residential accommodation for staff to ensure smooth functioning of the offices throughout the year, especially during harsh weather conditions.
Director Rajesh Kumar Shavan gave a patient hearing to the issues raised and assured that all genuine concerns would be addressed on priority. He further assured that TSO offices along with residential accommodation would be established in both the remote blocks.
Acting promptly on the matter, the Director directed the concerned authorities to identify suitable state land for the establishment of the offices and related infrastructure.
The meeting is being viewed as a significant step towards strengthening administrative infrastructure and improving public service delivery in the far-flung areas of Marwah and Warwan.
