As many as 35 treasuries in Kerala now have facilities on the lines of new generation banks, with Inkel Ltd successfully completing the Treasury Infrastructure Development Project (TIDP) of the State Government.
The State Government launched TIDP to ensure better facilities for the people, especially the disabled and senior pensioners.
“While 30 existing treasuries have been upgraded with all facilities, we constructed five new ones. All the upgradation works were executed in working treasuries with minimal disruption of essential services to public. The project cost was approximately ₹15 crore and the entire project was executed without any cost over-run,” said Inkel Managing Director T Balakrishnan.
The company prepared a detailed project plan and design works for the modernisation of the treasury offices following a social survey. The facilities included accessible toilets for the disabled, lifts, token facilities with parallel counters, and ramps to reduce the rush.
These treasuries are currently operating in renovated buildings.
