Bhubaneswar: Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik has increased the remuneration of self-employed mechanics working in Gram Panchayats in the state. Their remuneration has been raised from the current amount of Rs 4,000 each to Rs 6,500.

This is 62.50 per cent more than the current remuneration. A total of 13,000 self-employed mechanics of the state will benefit from this increase, official sources said on Friday.

It is worth mentioning that during the district tours of 5T and Nabin Odisha Chairman V K Pandian, there were requests and proposals in this regard from various volunteer mechanics and representatives. After discussion on the issue, it was decided to increase the salary of self-employed artisans.

To provide regular clean drinking water to all the villages of the state and to eliminate waterlogging, two mechanics are employed in every village panchayat. They provide continuous services for piped water supply, maintenance, and repair of tube wells.
