There is one post of executive engineer and 20 posts of deputy engineers. Five posts of deputy executive engineers have been sanctioned in the district. Four of these posts are vacant.
As a result, the junior engineer has been given the additional charge of this post. There are also 20 posts of junior engineers, out of these 9 posts are vacant. In addition, the post of senior clerk, junior clerk, peon, draftsman are vacant. The department only has two computers. The existing employees have to face difficulties in completing office work.
