For better coordination and effective implementation of all the welfare schemes under the Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation (BMC), Jan Sampark Divas will be organised again on 1st and 16th of every month in all 12 zones across the city.
The next Jan Sampark Divas will be organised on the July 16. The Jan Sampark Divas remained suspended from May 1 following a notification from the BMC authorities, due to heat wave like conditions.
The philosophy behind Jan Sampark Divas is based on encouraging citizens to redress their grievance through a direct interaction with the Government officials at their localities.
This door step service mechanism is designed to provide single window service to the citizens. The city is divided in 12 sub-zones. One sub zone comprises of six wards on an average. This is planned as per the adjacent localities to the sub-zone centres. The camp is headed by one nodal officer in presence of ward officer, sanitary inspector, engineers, community organisers and other supporting staff, who represent the BMC.
All types of grievances are received and discussed for an urgent and direct solution in presence of citizens.
