Vijayawada : The state government has taken a serious view of the casual approach of some officials in preparing replies to the questions raised by members as well as the laxity that was shown by them in the fire incident at the Madanapalle sub-collector office.
Soon after the Assembly session was over Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu convened a meeting of all HoDs and a few ministers and made it clear to them that they have to shed their old habits and work in a responsible manner.

“No Sir, does not arise, kind of replies will not be accepted,” he said.
