In the ongoing Lok Sabha elections, more than 4000 applications remained pending in Bhopal within 2 months. These applications are for problems related to common people including CM helpline, court case, pension, water, ration card.
Now the emphasis is on settling these applications as soon as we get free from voting. Collector Kaushlendra Vikram Singh said, SDM, Tehsildar and other officers will sit in the offices and solve the problems.
The code of conduct for Lok Sabha elections came into effect from March 16. Voting took place on 7 May. During the elections, officers remained busy due to road shows, meetings and visits of big leaders, nomination process, training for voting and other work. This is the reason why pending cases increased. Here, the public hearing in the Collectorate also stopped. Due to this also people could not tell their problems to the officers. Although the code of conduct is not over yet, Collector Singh has asked all the officers to resolve the pending cases and problems by staying within the ambit of the code of conduct. A meeting of officers has also been held for this.
