The first Janta Darbar was held today at Mathany Saldanha Margao, wherein the Revenue Minister, Shri Atanasio Monserrate heard the grievances of the people.
Addressing the gathering, Revenue Minister said that every Month one MLA will be addressing the grievances of the public in Janta Darbar. “Janta Darbar is a unique initiative taken by our Chief Minister, Dr. Pramod Sawant to resolve the issues of people infront of the concerned Department and authorities. It is the need of the hour that the Mamlatdar, Deputy Collector and Collector give a human touch as far as the grievances of the public are concerned. The public should be provided hassle free services and should not be made to run around the departments”, he added.
He further stated that the officers should guide the people to resolve their grievances and should not delay due to the absence of any official. The first Janta Darbar witnessed people in large number with their grievances and the Revenue Minister ensured people that their issues will be resolved with immediate effect.
The other dignitaries present at the Janta Darbar were Margao MLA, Shri Digambar Kamat; Cutorim MLA, Shri Aleixo Reginaldo Lourenco; Velim MLA, Shri Cruz Silva; Benaulim MLA, Shri Venzy Viegas; South Goa Collector, Shri Asvin Chandru, IAS, and other Government officials.
