In one of the best examples of how slow the various departments of Mantralaya works, the files that were burnt almost six months back in the raging Mantralaya fire are still not ready.
If the reply to the Right to Information (RTI) given to me is to be relied then in the Mantralaya fire 63,349 files were destroyed, but till date only 6,339 files have been recreated by the various departments, which is only 10%.
“It’s a worst example of government offices. Their attitude to deal important issues is clearly shown by the state government. Now the government officials from the various departments are ignoring CM’s order just like they do with the common man,”
The three departments that suffered maximum damage in terms of loss of files are home, industries, energy and labour department and general administration. Home lost 11,065 files in the blaze, similarly, industries, energy and labour department’s 12,454 files had got charred. Whereas, records in 19,719 files of GAD needs to be recreated.
However, as per the reply to the RTI application, not a single file has been recreated by home department. Industry, energy and labour department has managed to make only 31 of its burnt records. While, GAD now has restored 717 of its 19,719 lost files.
Chief minister headed transport department too hasn’t recreated a single file, in all 4,120 files of this department had got burnt.
State housing department had suffered loss of 229 files, of which 157 are now ready. Similarly, 104 files of the law and judiciary department out of 133 lost files have been remade.
In terms of % it is just 10% a nice round number!
