Expressing concern over the slow pace of work, he instructed the concerned executive engineer to accelerate construction and rectify the deficiencies identified during the inspection.
He also highlighted areas in the model flat that required improvement and directed the relevant officials to take corrective action without delay to ensure compliance with construction standards.
