Bihar Chief Secretary Pratyaya Amrit spearheaded the inaugural meeting of the state's Crisis Management Group, urgently addressing the maintenance of essential supplies during the West Asia conflict.
The government swiftly formed the CMG to oversee the availability of key resources, protect migrant worker interests, and align state responses to potential conflict repercussions. Discussions revealed concerns over delayed natural gas connections across 14 districts, prompting a strategic action plan for expedited project management.
Priorities outlined included clearing LPG supply backlogs, conducting petrol pump inspections, and maintaining service for welfare programs. To combat black marketing, a stringent zero-tolerance policy was emphasized, alongside directives for legal action against offenders. Authorities will provide helplines and manage migrant workforces, with CMG slated for weekly reviews.
