Talking about the priorities of the state government at the village level, Khattar said that works like cleaning of ponds, maintenance work under Shivdham yojana, construction of parks-cum-vyayamshalas and wellness centres are being done at the villages and all the newly appointed block development panchayat officers should efficiently carry out their tasks in this regard.

He also directed the officers to expedite the registration of property IDs under the SVAMITVA Scheme after meeting the sarpanches and gram sachivs.
