The State Government has decided to make video recording for each Gram Sabha and Palli Sabha meeting as mandatory, informed Panchayati Raj Minister Kalpataru Das.
Das said that the State Government has decided to record the proceeding of the meetings of each Gram Sabha and Palli Sabha in video mode. The purpose of video recording is to ensure transparency and strengthen the Gram Sabhas, particularly in the tribal areas, he informed.
“We are trying to launch the process of video recording most likely on October 2 on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti. In the process, video clippings or CDs would be transferred to the department and to the districts. The CDs will be made available to people through Right to Information,” he clarified.
Regarding installation of toll-free helpline, the Minister said that the Government has decided to operationalise this mechanism for redressal of public grievances. Persons affected with various administrative works at the panchayat, block and district levels can lodge complaints or make suggestions through toll-free helpline. The district or departmental officers would attend the grievances and address them in a stipulated time frame, he added.
