The Secretary DLSA will co-ordinate with the authorities for this purpose.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">(iv) Each of the teams will submit their reports along with video clippings and photographs addressing each of the issues highlighted in para 3 of this order in a pen-drive to the concerned Secretary DLSA on or before 5 pm on 30th November, 2021.
