‘Praja Seva’ will make government more responsive to people: Priyank Kharge
Home Minister Priyank Kharge inaugurated the 'Praja Seva' initiative in Kalaburagi, aimed at bringing government services directly to citizens. The program mandates that officials resolve grievances within a set timeframe and provides a structured system for tracking applications.
Why it matters
The initiative represents a significant effort by the Karnataka state government to improve administrative accountability and accessibility at the taluk level.
Home Minister and Kalaburagi district in-charge Minister Priyank Kharge said the State government’s Praja Seva initiative was a testament to its commitment to taking administration to people’s doorsteps and ensuring time-bound redressal of their grievances.
Speaking after inaugurating the Praja Seva campaign at Kamalapur in Kalaburagi district on Saturday, Mr. Kharge said the initiative reflected the government’s belief that “ jana seve is janardhana seve ” and that a government should listen to people’s problems rather than remain distant from them.
The campaign was launched simultaneously across Karnataka, with Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar inaugurating it at Kudligi in Vijayanagara district and district in-charge Ministers leading the programme in their respective districts.
