Space equal to four Rashtrapati Bhavans freed up by Govt; Earns Rs 40 Cr from Scrap Sale

Around 8.06 lakh square feet of space has been freed by weeding out 13.73 lakh files between October 2 and October 31, as part of the special drive directed by the Prime Minister last month. The floor space of the Rashtrapati Bhavan is around two lakh square feet. The government has sold scrap worth nearly Rs 40 crore from the entire exercise.

 

Senior government officials said the result is much cleaner and roomier government offices and buildings. The total target of files to be weeded out is 15.23 lakh files and the same could be achieved when the figures are updated by November 8.

 

The government has also disposed of 2.92 lakh public grievances in the said period out of the nearly 3.28 lakh which are overdue, along with disposing of nearly 18,000 appeals filed with higher authorities.

 

Nearly 8,300 pending references from MPs have been cleared and over 950 parliamentary assurances have been responded to in the drive. Around 940 state government references from Chief Ministers have also been responded to.

 

The government also carried out close to 5,000 cleanliness drives in the mentioned period and eased out 685 rules or processes as part of simplification of the rules.
