DIRECTORATE GENERAL OF HUMAN RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT
(INFRASTRUCTURE & WELFARE WING)
Availability of quality Infrastructure is necessary for effective functioning of
the Department as well as for satisfaction of the officers and the staff. Also,
as the Department has regular interaction with the public at large providing
an amiable environment is necessary for the smooth functioning and for ease
of doing business.
The Infrastructure Wing of the DGHRD is committed in its efforts towards
improvement of infrastructural facilities of the department, consolidating the
physical assets owned by the Department namely; land, office building,
residential accommodation, godowns and guest houses to evaluate the assets
available with the department and also to pursue an action plan for
acquiring new assets and usefully utilizing the vacant assets.
DGHRD has inventorised the assets in the form of an Asset Register to
consolidate the physical assets owned by the Department. The value of
assets is Rs. 7684 crores, as on 31.12.2010.
Consequent to Cadre Restructuring creation of new assets by way of
infrastructure expansion for accommodating the new offices has become an
essential and imminent need.
Another positive expected change i.e. Goods and Service Tax (GST) is on the
anvil of the approval by the Government and would require further
proportional augmentation of the infrastructure.
