The Jaipur Development Authority (JDA) which has a large force of engineers does not have adequate work for them, because of resource crunch.

JDA has not not been able to  justify their presence as there are fewer projects to be executed because of paucity of funds.

Large number of engineers posted in JDA are on deputations from various departments whilegetting JDA’s deputation is considered a privilege posting.  

Notably, JDA has more engineers on its rolls than the sanctioned limits.

There are 47 executive engineers, but hardly  seven of them are  engaged in productive work. More than three dozens of the executive engineers have practically no work with them.

There are few  executive engineers who have works that are limited to  one single zone.

JDA has not been able to relieve such engineers and send them to their respective  parent departments because of paucity of work.

Some of the engineers  enjoy patronage of the high ups and are thus drawing their salary without much work.

The  executive engineers  who are on deputation and are sitting  idle with no or inadequate works are: Sunil Vyas, Vinod Krishnaiya (Zone 4), Dharmendra Sharma ( Zone 8), Suresh Mathur, P K Vyas ( Prithviraj Nagar North),
S Nathawat (Prithviraj Nagar South), Gopal Sharma ( Smart City project), Sanjay Vyas ( QC1), Pramod Katewa ( QC2), Rajesh Pal, Bhawani Singh (Zone 6),  L N Mittal ( Zone 9), RK Mathur, Pyare Lal Meena ( Planning), Mukesh Meena ( Sewer Lines), Manoj Singh ( PHED), Arun Sharma (Housing), Ravindra Mathur, V M Johari (Sitapura Bassi), Richhpal Singh ( Ring Road),      Rajendra Ahuja ( Zone  10), Subhash Saini (Zone 3), Brajesh Awasthi ( Zone 5), D K Agrawal ( Zone 7) and Deepak Balchandani (Drainage).

Apart from these executive engineers a number of junior level engineers  remain  without work  because of fewer new projects.
