DIMAPUR , August 17: Kohima District Planning and Development Board (DPDB) meeting was held at the conference hall of DPDB, Kohima on August 16. The meeting was chaired by deputy commissioner (DC) & vice chairman DPDB Kohima, Gregory Thejawelie in the presence of advisor for urban development and municipal affairs, Dr. Neikiesalie Nicky Kire.

According to a DIPR report, the meeting discussed issues on the exercise of unregulated water pipeline and plastics within Kohima town.

In this regard, the DC said that activities in clearing the unregulated pipelines in few worst affected areas and checking of prohibited plastic items were undertaken by the district administration along with some other departments and colony authorities during the year 2019.

However, he informed that with the pandemic, the exercise could not be conducted for the past year and months where prohibited plastic items had resurfaced and re-appearance of water pipelines was observed.

The meeting therefore decided to look into the concerned issues and take up further action in due course of time.

In this connection, a committee for streamlining the water pipelines was constituted.

The meeting also reviewed the last meeting minutes where DC reminded all village adoption committees to chalk out its programme and to start the process at the earliest.

On the agenda for development of public parks under Kohima district, which was earlier identified by the government i.e. botanical garden, Kohima and Nagaland University Campus, Meriema, the meeting discussed on the matter and constituted a committee with seven members from various departments headed by ADC Kohima to work out the detailed project proposal for the approval of DPDB and for onward submission to the government.

Meanwhile, senior treasury officer, Kohima, Vechiso Chakhesang delivered a PowerPoint presentation on the structure of government accounts, classification of accounts, learning to read-demand for grants and the index of classification.

Later, social welfare department was entrusted to present its departmental activities report in the next DPDB meeting.
