Punjab Newsline, Chandigarh-
The Haryana Government has directed all officers and employees of the Treasury & Accounts Department and the Local Audit Department posted in various Municipal Corporations, Municipal Councils, and Municipal Committees across the state to discontinue any kind of physical file processing. All bill processing and approval-related work must be carried out only through the Haryana Engineering Works Portal (HEWP).
CS Anurag Rastogi, who also holds the charge of Additional Chief Secretary, Finance Department, has issued a letter in this regard.
According to the letter, the government has observed that physical exchange of files not only causes delays but also hampers the objective of establishing good governance through modern technology. Keeping this in view, officers and employees of the Treasury & Accounts Department and the Local Audit Department posted in various Municipal Corporations, Municipal Councils, and Municipal Committees have been instructed to completely stop physical file processing. All bill-related proceedings, approvals, and monitoring of work must now be done only through the HEWP Portal.
The letter also states that these instructions must be strictly followed and any kind of negligence will be taken seriously.
