Modi govt committed to resolve public issues: Dr Jitendra Singh

Jammu, Nov 24: Union Minister Dr Jitendra Singh today said that Modi government is committed to resolve public issues at their doorsteps.

According to an official press release, he was speaking during a “Public Darbar” at block Marheen in Hiranagar sector, district Kathua . The “Darbar” was part of his ongoing spree of reaching out to the public directly to listen to their issues and concerns.

Several issues raised by individual citizens and delegations were resolved on-the-spot. Instructions for immediate action were issued in several other cases.

The entire district administration led by Deputy Commissioner Rakesh Minhas and senior officers from PWD, PDD, NHAI, Police, Revenue and other departments were also present during the Public Darbar for instant intervention and follow-up. This was the third such Public Darbar in different parts of district Kathua in recent months.

Dr Jitendra Singh said, elected representatives owe the obligation of not only addressing the genuine requirements of the electorate but also to seek to convince them that they are cared and heard. “And, a Public Darbar like this serves that purpose,” he added.

The Union Minister asserted that the NDA government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi is committed to serving common citizens and reducing public inconvenience. He said the government is focused on delivery of public services at their doorsteps, with an objective of ensuring ease of living for the citizens, rising above the narrow considerations of politics, caste, creed and region.

During the public darbar, Dr Jitendra was briefed by the administration about the status of matters brought to his notice by the general public on previous occasions.

While interacting with them, Dr Jitendra Singh assured the visiting delegations that he would himself monitor the status of their issues raised today and take all possible steps so that they are addressed by the district administration in a time-bound manner.
