The CM heard each matter individually, sought details of the cases and directed the officials to take necessary action to resolve the issues. He said that direct dialogue between the public and government strengthens democratic functioning, and public hearings provide an opportunity for citizens to place their concerns directly before the administration, paving the way for resolution of pending matters at different levels.

He emphasised that the government’s priority is to ensure that every citizen benefits from good governance and that schemes and policies are meaningful only when their benefits reach the needy in time. He directed that all matters be forwarded to the concerned departments for early action.
