Rajasthan govt declares 25 central and state-level schemes as flagship programmes

The Rajasthan government has declared 25 central and state-level schemes as flagship programmes, which will now come under the direct and continuous monitoring of the Chief Minister’s Office (CMO). These include critical initiatives such as the Jal Jeevan Mission, reflecting the government’s intensified focus on timely execution and effective governance. As part of this new directive, departments implementing these flagship schemes will be required to submit monthly progress and expenditure reports by the 7th of every month to the CMO.

 

In addition to the CMO, the Planning Department will also track and review progress from



planning to Public Relations implementation. District in-charge ministers and secretaries will hold regular review meetings to ensure the smooth functioning and timely completion of these schemes. 

The decision to bring Jal Jeevan Mission under flagship monitoring comes shortly after former Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje expressed strong discontent over the slow progress of the scheme in Jhalawar district. Raje raised concerns about the ongoing water crisis and held officials accountable for delays, sparking a broader debate across the state regarding the mission’s execution.
