In a bid to ensure transparency, accountability and responsiveness in the system, the district administration has decided to install CCTV cameras at all tehsil complexes in Ambala. Besides, point of sale (POS) machines will also be made available for promoting digital transactions. Under the pilot project, CCTV cameras and POS machines are being installed in Naraingarh tehsil.
Disclosing this, Deputy Commissioner Ashok Kumar Sharma said the idea behind the move was to keep all activities and operations at the tehsil complexes under check so that no discrepancy or unethical work could take place.
“Since tehsil complexes are among the most frequently visited public offices and deal with cash and property transactions, the move will keep a check on their working,” he said.
Acting swiftly on the DC’s directive, Naraingarh SDM Aditi initiated the work to install CCTV cameras and POS machines at the tehsil complex in her subdivision.
After her visit, the SDM said a complaint box had also been installed at the tehsil complex for the public to inform them of any wrong in the system. “We have also displayed the official fee structure outside the tehsil office for the information of the public,” she added
