 Raipur (PTI): A high-level Central team, headed by Union Cabinet Secretary K M Chandrasekhar, on Saturday reviewed the situation in Chhattisgarh, including problems related to naxalites, Salwa Judum and development, officials said. "The Cabinet Secretary has been reviewing the works of as many as 13 state departments, besides the protracted problem of naxalites, which is also the biggest obstacle to development in many parts of Chhattisgarh, and the most debated issue of Salwa Judum," a senior state government official told PTI here. Chandrasekhar reached here last night along with Director Intelligence Bureau, secretaries and top officials from ministries of Home Affairs, Rural Development, Drinking Water Supply, Urban Development, Tribal Affairs, Panchayat Raj, Health, Road Transport, Highways, Power, National Commission for ST and Planning Commission, officials said. The team is on a two-day state visit, they added. Sending across a message that the delegation was here for business, the Cabinet Secretary, immediately after his arrival, had a discussion with Chief Minister Raman Singh on the issue of development and naxalites, sources said. The Central team also called on Governor E S L Narasimhan, who had served as the Director Intelligence Bureau before taking up his assignment of the naxal-infested state. http://www.hindu.com/thehindu/holnus/001200710271650.htm Bookmark/Search this post with:
