Ensure presence at Samadhan Shivirs or face music, ADC warns officials

Rohtak Additional Deputy Commissioner (ADC) Narendra Kumar has warned officials of strict action if they remain absent from Samadhan Shivirs organised by the district administration.

“All officials concerned should ensure their presence at Samadhan Camps on Monday and Thursday and at review meetings on Friday. Show-cause notices will be issued to those officials who remain absent from Samadhan Shivirs and copies will be sent to the Chief Minister’s office,” the ADC asserted.

He pointed out that of 6,429 complaints received at Samadhan Camps in the district, 5,560 complaints were settled. He said the process of settlement of 139 complaints was underway. He said 243 complaints had been cancelled.

Narendra Kumar was giving directions to officials after reviewing the pending complaints of Samadhan Camps.

He said officials should ensure settlement of pending complaints of Samadhan Camps as soon as possible and deal with re-opened complaints carefully.

“A list of pending complaints is being made available to all departments by the complaint branch. Officials should come to Samadhan Camp and review meeting with this list,” the ADC maintained. He pointed out that except for a few departments, the number of pending complaints of other departments was in single digits.

Acknowledging that the pace of settlement of complaints was good in the district, Kumar said, “This pace of settlement of complaints should be maintained. Older complaints should be settled on priority basis.”

“The state Samadhan Cell reviews pending as well as settled complaints every Friday. Officials of the cell interact with complainants to find out whether their complaint has actually been settled as per their satisfaction,” he said.
