Lack of action plan hampers CPWD performance: MoHUA
New Indian ExpressNEW DELHI: The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs has conveyed its displeasure to the Central Public Work Department as the latter failed to meet the off-take target of utilisation of construction and demolition waste recycled products for three consecutive years. In a recent review, a senior official of the ministry chairing the meeting noted that ‘overall performance of CPWD has been poor over the preceding years due to lack of will, vision and action plan’. During the current financial year, the CPWD has used 25,419 metric tonnes C&D waste recycled products against the targeted off-take of 1.1 lakh MT, which is about 23%. Meanwhile, each region and zone of the CPWD has been asked to prepare action plans or road maps with monthly, quarterly, and annual off-take targets to maximise utilisation of the C&D products.
