Ghaziabad MP and Union Minister General VK Singh will be setting up a 24x7 public grievance cell to address local issues of his constituency. Nearly 7-8 committees will be formed on various issues like law and order, infrastructure and public health and the complaints will be forwarded to the committees concerned with recommendation of the MP. The committee will assess the problems and suggest viable solution to them. They will also take up the matter with authorities concerned.
Elaborating on the proposed public grievance cell, General Singh said the committees would comprise members from political, social and professional background. During his visit to the constituency on Sunday, he also sought to dispel the rumors that he would not be accessible to the people of Ghaziabad saying he has found an accommodation in the city and that he would be available to the people. Singh said to develop the skill among youths, the city would have a skill development centre soon for which he had deliberations with Sarbananda Sonowal, the Minister of State for Youth Affairs and Skill Development. “This step has been taken to reduce unemployment by paving the way for generating self-employment up to some extent,” he said.
The MP said to pursue his charter he had a series of meetings with the Road and Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari and Power Minister Piyush Goyal and others. “For widening of National Highway-24 and 58, the Surface Transport Minister’s response was very positive. The project which was delayed during UPA-II rule has been expedited. A proposal of bypass Modi Nagar at NH-58 is also under consideration,” Singh said adding he has requested the State Government to release Rs270 crore fund which were lapsed during previous government for Khoda Colony development.
