Betapur, May 20: Once the best Saw Mill of North and Middle Andaman the Betapur Sawmill is in pathetic shape now. According to reports the equipments of the Saw Mill have become too old and due to lack of man-power the output of the Saw Mill has gone down, causing huge problems to the people living in North and Middle Andaman.
Talking to Andaman Sheekha the DFO of Rangat Mr. Amit Anand today said that soon after his joining he came to know about the pathetic condition of the Saw Mill and soon he conducted a meeting with all his subordinate officers on last Friday, to understand the ground realities.
“We are trying to bring big cranes with the consultation of the PCCF. I hope that within one year the crane would be placed in the Saw Mill for timber dragging and placing on the sawing bench,” he said.
He said that due to lack of manpower the situation became bad in the Saw Mill but now the PCCF has given him orders to engage more labourers as DRMs so that the target could be achieved soon.
Regarding appointment of ladies in the Saw Mill he said that soon a canteen will be opened in the Saw Mill and after that all ladies will be posted in the canteen.
