To take stock of the problems being faced by people and ensure on-the-spot redressal, Sarori along with PMGSY, RDD, R&B, PHE officials held a daylong tour of the kandi and far-flung areas.
Underlining measures taken by Congress to ensure timely delivery of services, Saroori said Congress was committed in making the administration more accountable, adding that Public Serviced Guarantee Act was a landmark initiative for the purpose. He said the time-bound delivery of public services would have gone in a long way in ensuring that the administration was made people-friendly and an accountable delivery mechanism was put in place but since BJP came as a ruling government everything developmental works any government services are going in negative way.
He said the panchayati raj bodies were empowered by the Congress and functions of over 14 departments was entrusted to them so as to involve people in planning as well as execution but the PDP-BJP who were doing the lip singing will failed to hold panchayat election in near future as well.
