“Prashasan Gaon Ki Ore” campaign will continue to be a key element of good governance in the State of Goa which is a true essence of grassroot-level democracy, Dr Pramod Sawant, Chief Minister of Goa, said while addressing the gathering at a district-level workshop conducted by the office of the South Goa District Collector as part of Good Governance Week 2024 at Matanhy Saldanha Administrative Complex, Madgaon, today, 23.12.2024.

The Chief Minister said that all government departments and offices should try to resolve the public grievances in a time bound manner. The workshop was conducted as part of “Prashasan Gaon Ki Ore,” a nationwide campaign for the redressal of public grievances and improving service delivery.

At the event, the Chief Minister distributed sanction orders for 568 claims amounting to ₹2,77,60,589/- received under Goa and Central Calamities Relief schemes. During the occasion, Dr Pramod Sawant also felicitated Shri ND Agarwal, former District Collector, South Goa, for his initiatives on Good Governance.

The workshop served as an occasion for the distribution of orders pertaining to Delayed Birth Registration. Members from Wanarmare Tribal Community of Siroda received orders under the Delayed Birth Registration from the hands of the Chief Minister.

This is a true essence of grassroots democracy, where development reaches the people,” he had said.
