Chandigarh Mayor Saurabh Joshi is set to host a Janta Darbar today, offering residents a direct platform to voice their civic concerns and seek immediate resolutions. This public interaction session will take place at the Mayor's Office in the Municipal Corporation building, Sector 17, starting at 11 am.
Direct Access to Civic Leadership
The initiative aims to bridge the gap between citizens and municipal authorities by providing unfiltered access to the Mayor. In recent months, residents have expressed frustration over delays in addressing grievances through standard administrative channels, prompting this proactive measure.
Scope of Issues to Be Addressed
During the Janta Darbar, attendees can raise complaints related to a wide range of municipal services. Key areas of focus include:
- Sanitation and waste management
- Road maintenance and pothole repairs
- Water supply and quality concerns
- Sewerage and drainage systems
- Street lighting and public safety
- Encroachments and illegal constructions
Officials and Follow-Up Actions
To ensure effective grievance redressal, officials from relevant departments will be present at the session. They will document issues raised and initiate follow-up actions promptly. Residents are advised to bring supporting documents, such as previous complaint details or photographs, to facilitate verification and swift resolution.
This Janta Darbar reflects the Municipal Corporation's commitment to enhancing civic engagement and improving service delivery in Chandigarh. By fostering direct dialogue, the administration hopes to build trust and address persistent urban challenges more efficiently.
