In the meeting, Mein said that the Finance Department has already given directives to all the departments to prepare SADA/AOP on or before May 10 and to submit it to the Finance Department for vetting. He stated that this working system has been implemented in line with the Central Govt style of working so that the developmental schemes/projects are implemented maintaining a proper time frame.
