Siddipet Police Issue Stern Warning on Illegal Sand Transportation
In a significant move to curb illegal activities, the Siddipet Commissioner of Police, Rashmi Perumal, issued a clear warning on Sunday, stating that cases will be registered against anyone involved in the unlawful transportation of sand. This announcement aims to tighten enforcement and promote legal channels for sand procurement in the district.
Promoting Transparency with 'Mana Isuka Vahanam' Initiative
CP Rashmi Perumal strongly urged citizens to utilize the government-launched 'Mana Isuka Vahanam' initiative for booking sand. This scheme was specifically introduced to make the sand supply process in Siddipet more transparent and corruption-free, while also enhancing accessibility for ordinary people. By shifting to an online platform, the initiative seeks to eliminate middlemen and ensure a fair system for all residents.
How to Book Sand Through the Official Portal
District residents can now book sand directly online by visiting the official website at tgmiv.cgg.gov.in. The process involves registering on the portal, submitting an application, and paying the prescribed fee. Once these steps are completed, the application undergoes verification by the respective village panchayat secretary and tahsildar before the sand is sanctioned. This streamlined procedure is designed to reduce delays and prevent malpractices.
Adherence to Government-Fixed Sand Rates
Police officials emphasized that sand rates must be paid according to the prices fixed by the Telangana government. This directive ensures that consumers are not overcharged and that all transactions comply with state regulations, further supporting the goal of a transparent and equitable sand distribution system.
Key Points to Remember:- Legal action will be taken against illegal sand transporters.
- Use the 'Mana Isuka Vahanam' portal for all sand bookings.
- Follow the online registration and payment process as outlined.
- Pay sand rates only as per government-fixed prices.
This initiative represents a proactive step by authorities to combat corruption and streamline essential services, benefiting the community at large.
