Initially,
just after trifurcation this department started its function
with only two circles, six works divisions ( including drilling
division at Pasighat) and 13 sub-divisions. Till today,
this department has been unable to set-up full-fledged infrastructures
for the smooth functioning of the department, due to meagre
allocation of the fund. Despite having constraints, this
department has created one post of CE, 3 circles (namely
Itanagar , Daporijo and Namsai Circle) and 14 divisions
(i.e. one Division in each district and one drilling division
at Pasighat). In order to facilitates proper execution of
the projects , attempt has been made to create minimum required
nos. of sub-divisions all over the state and thereby the
total sub-divisions created till today is 42. Due to paucity
of fund the Sub-Divisions, Divisions & Circles which
are already created are under-staffed and other necessary
infrastructures such as buildings, vehicles, etc, could
not be provided adequately. |
