He emphasised that people from all sections of society should be engaged in these programmes, and success stories of individuals making significant contributions in different fields should be shared widely.
Highlighting key achievements over the last three years, Dhami noted that several landmark decisions have been made in alignment with public aspirations. The Chief Minister also directed officials to take concrete steps to conserve natural water sources, including the revival of traditional water structures such as ‘Chal-Khal,’ wells, seasonal streams and other natural water bodies. In light of the coming summer, he instructed departments to ensure an adequate supply of drinking water across the state.
The meeting was attended by Chief Secretary Radha Raturi, Additional Chief Secretary Anand Bardhan, Principal Secretary Justice Pradeep Pant, Principal Secretaries L Fanai and R Meenakshi Sundaram, DGP Deepam Seth, various secretaries, department heads, and district magistrates.

The main programme will be held in Almora on 22 March, followed by Dehradun district on 23 March. Additionally, similar camps will be held in all districts on 23 March. The minister in charge of each district will preside over the programmes at the district headquarters. In cases where the designated ministers are unavailable, Members of Parliament (MPs) will preside over these camps. The Chief Secretary further directed that the multipurpose camps provide information regarding services available to the public and schemes run by various departments.
