PUNE: As many
as 55.28 lakh files were cleared in the Pune Division in the past nine
months under the ‘zero pendency’ model. Sharing this information with pune-news.com, Pune divisional
commissioner Chandrakant Dalvi said that the pending 1.69 lakh files will
be cleared by February-end.
In May last year, Dalvi had set a ‘zero pendency’ target for
the division, which includes Pune, Satara, Sangli, Solapur and Kolhapur
districts. Of the 1.68 crore files scrutinized during the period, 98.53 lakh
were preserved while 69.76 lakh were destroyed as per the norms, Dalvi said. As
many as 7,222 offices and 23,092 workers were part of this initiative, which
commenced on May 1, last year.
“Before May, the pendency was 6.98 lakh files. Another 49.99
lakh files were added during the six months thereafter. We cleared 55.28 lakh
files in the last nine months, bringing down the pendency to 1.69 lakh, which
will be cleared by the end of this month,” Dalvi said.
The government is also gearing up to issue a GR making it
mandatory for all the departments to clear their files as per the guidelines to
achieve zero pendency. “Earlier, these files used to just lie on the officers’
table and citizens had to keep making rounds to the offices to get them
cleared. This has changed with this zero pendency model,” Dalvi said, adding
that there is a time frame for all the officials to clear the files as per the
norms.
Dalvi said once a case reaches any department, the person
concerned is told immediately if it cannot be resolved. “If it has to be moved
to other departments, it is done within a week. While at the taluka level a
time frame of one month is given, it is two months for sthe sub-divisional
officer, three months for the district and two months for the zilla parishad.
If the same is not done, action can be initiated against the official
concerned,” Dalvi added. The entire system is tracked through a software
readied by the National Informatics Centres and a weekly report is sought
from every office in the district and state.
