● The academic sessions have commenced at Shakumbhari University, Saharanpur, Raja Mahendra Pratap Singh State University, Aligarh, and Maharaja Suheldev State University, Azamgarh. Starting from the upcoming session, ensure that all these universities are operational on their respective campuses. Complete the construction work for these universities by January 31, and ensure the timely availability of furniture and other necessities.

● Expedite the construction of Sainik School, Gorakhpur, and Unani Medical College, Bareilly, with the aim to complete the work by the upcoming January and February, respectively. The progress of the construction work at the Cultural Harmony Center, Rampur, is not satisfactory; hence, speed up the process.

● Delays in construction projects not only lead to cost overruns but also deprive the target segment of timely benefits. No budget reassessment should be carried out for any project related to construction, including medical colleges, universities, and prisons.

● Every Additional Chief Secretary/Principal Secretary should review the under-construction projects of his department fortnightly. If there is a delay in work, monthly timeline is not followed, or the quality is not up to standard, then fix accountability immediately. Penalties should be imposed on firms that do not meet the standards of punctuality and quality. If penalty has to be imposed thrice, the concerned firm should be blacklisted.

● There should not be any delay in the process of land selection, consultant selection, DPR etc. for the construction of the proposed District Court in 10 districts. It should be given top priority by the planning department.
