Background: The Chief Representative Office, Sonamling Tibetan Settlement, accommodates two appointed civil servants from the Central Tibetan Administration who have been transferred to Ladakh under challenging weather conditions. The staff quarters and CRO residence had not undergone painting for a considerable period, and the washroom facilities were in a state of disrepair. Addressing these issues was crucial for ensuring the well-being and effectiveness of the civil servants serving in remote areas, particularly during harsh winters.

The project committee of Sonamling Tibetan Office oversaw the planning and execution of the project. The primary tasks included painting the staff quarters, repairing damaged pipelines, and constructing composite toilets.
Completion and Achievements: The project was successfully completed in March 2024 through the collaborative efforts of the project committee. The renovations and upgrades have significantly improved the living conditions for the staff members, enhancing their comfort and well-being. The completion of the project aligns with the objective of providing essential facilities to support civil servants in serving remote communities effectively.
