IMPHAL, Dec 1(DIPR)
The Government of Manipur has taken a significant step to strengthen the ongoing efforts for the rehabilitation and resettlement of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in the State by constituting State level and district level committees with immediate effect.
The State Level Committee, chaired by the Chief Secretary and comprising the Commissioners of Finance, Home, and Rural Development and Pancha-yati Raj, with the Special or Addl Secretary (Home) serving as Convenor, will provide strategic oversight and policy direction.
This high-level body is designed to ensure unified decision-making, enhance inter-departmental coordination, and address systemic issues that may affect the overall progress of rehabilitation and resettlement efforts across the State.
Complementing this, district level committees, chaired by the respective Deputy Commissioners and supported by the Project Director (DRDA), the Additional Deputy Commissioner as Convenor, the Chief Executive Officer of the Zilla Parishad, and the Sub-Divisional Officers concerned, will serve as the primary on-ground mechanism for implementation.
Their role is to drive field-level coordination, ensure seamless execution of rehabilitation measures, and provide timely feedback to facilitate swift decision-making at the State level.
The committees are tasked with monitoring and coordinating all rehabilitation and resettlement ini- tiatives for IDPs and addressing bottlenecks to en- sure timely and efficient delivery of support.
The structured intervention is expected to stream- line processes, enhance inter-departmental coordina- tion, and ensure that assistance reaches families.
