Lucknow, Sep 21 (IANS) Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Monday met residents of various districts during the ‘Janta Darshan’ in Lucknow, heard their grievances and directed concerned officials to ensure prompt and time-bound resolution of their problems.
After going through applications submitted by the people, the Chief Minister stressed the need for district-level officials to remain vigilant on all issues including minor incidents, to prevent them from escalating into larger disputes.
“People who seek to spread discord in society want to turn minor incidents into major ones. Therefore, District Magistrates and SPs must personally keep a watch on even the smallest incident in their respective districts. They must immediately reach the spot, hear the grievances of victims and ensure that the matter is brought to a conclusion by taking action against the guilty as per the rules,” he said.
“Negligence and laxity will not be tolerated even in minor incidents,” Yogi Adityanath warned.
During the ‘Janta Darshan’, the Chief Minister met each person seeking his intervention. He listened to their concerns and examined applications related to the administration, police, revenue, electricity and other departments.
“For the past nine and a half years, the government has been ensuring appropriate resolution of the problems of every victim without discrimination. Officials must be sensitive and ensure the time-bound disposal of public grievances. Ensure that eligible persons receive the benefits of public welfare schemes, make arrangements for the treatment of patients and take the strictest action against land mafias and influential persons,” CM Yogi said.
A majority of the complaints submitted during the ‘Janta Darshan’ were related to the police and revenue departments. Taking note of this, the Chief Minister adopted a strict approach and directed senior police officials to regularly monitor the resolution of public grievances.
“Police Commissioners, ADGs, IGs, DIGs and officers at the SSP level must regularly ensure the resolution of public grievances in their respective districts. If a complaint of negligence is received against any subordinate, action must also be taken against them,” he said.
CM Yogi also directed officials to ensure the speedy disposal of cases concerning revenue matters and law and order, while stressing that public grievances should not be allowed to remain pending for long.
During the ‘Janta Darshan’, the Chief Minister also interacted with a young child who had accompanied his mother and wished him a bright future.
