Patna: Bihar's health minister, Nishant Kumar, took part in the Janata Dal (United)'s Jan Sunwai programme at the party's state office in Patna on Wednesday. This marked his first direct public grievance hearing since assuming office.
Ministers Address Public Issues
Accompanied by transport minister Damodar Rawat and disaster management minister Ratnesh Sada, Nishant interacted with a large number of petitioners who had arrived from various districts seeking solutions to their problems.
During the programme, Nishant listened to grievances individually and issued necessary instructions to the concerned officials for their lawful and timely disposal. He assured the petitioners that the government remained committed to ensuring transparent and swift resolution of public grievances.
Government Commitment
Nishant stated that the state government was fully committed to addressing the concerns of common citizens and that programmes like Jan Sunwai had become an effective platform for strengthening communication between the public and the government.
Damodar and Ratnesh also heard complaints related to their respective departments and initiated steps for resolving them.
Rotational Hearing System
The JD(U)'s Jan Sunwai programme operates on a rotational roster system, where a group of three ministers conducts hearings five days a week. This ensures time-bound and inter-departmental action on public grievances.
