Kerala to appoint Integrated Financial Adviser in every department

The Kerala government plans to assign an Integrated Financial Adviser to each department to accelerate administrative processes. The officers will conduct thorough scrutiny of departmental files before forwarding them to the Finance department, ensuring efficiency in file movement.

The initiative is designed to improve project implementation and reduce delays in the approval process. By embedding financial advisers within departments, the state aims to strengthen coordination between sectoral ministries and the Finance department.
