Persons with disabilities get relief at Samadhan Shivir

The Samadhan Shivir being organised by the district administration to redress public grievances brought a major relief to two persons with disabilities when Deputy Commissioner (DC) Pradeep Dahiya directed officials concerned to resolve their grievances on the spot.

Complying with the directives, the officials concerned not only completed the paper formalities at the shivir but also ensured the benefit of pension to Rahul of Babepur village here. Otherwise, he was making rounds of the office to get his pension.

Similarly, the DC directed the officials concerned to provide motor-tricycles to Dharambir of Raiya village here at the earliest after hearing his grievance. Both persons got the relief a day before the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, which is observed on December 3.Besides them, the property ID of Rishal Singh of Model Town locality here was generated on the spot at the shivir. The action came when the DC after listening to his grievance directed the Executive Officer of the Municipal Council to generate the property ID with immediate effect.

“Samadhan shivirs are being organised across the district to redress public grievances on the spot. DC Pradeep Dahiya himself listens to the public grievances seriously and ensures their quick and effective solution. Even, the complaints are monitored by him continuously,” said a district official.

Dahiya said a total 47 complaints were registered at the Samadhan Shivir organised at various government offices in the district on Monday. Many of them were resolved on the spot while the officials concerned were directed to provide relief to the complaints by resolving their problems as soon as possible, he added.

“The Samadhan Shivir is an important step to bring about a change in people’s lives. Not only are the problems being resolved quickly, but the trust of the public in the administration is also getting strengthened. This is a transparent and accountable system due to which the relationship between the public and the administration has improved further,” Dahiya added.

Another official said the people came to the Samadhan Shivir with problems related to encroachment, CM Window, old-age pension, Ayushman card, crop sale payment, Dr BR Ambedkar Housing Renovation Scheme, drain construction, Ladli Pension Scheme, solar energy schemes and Mahatma Gandhi Rural Colony Scheme etc.
