Rural Development Gets Fresh Impetus in Indora, MLA Malendra Rajan Reviews Panchayat Works

Indora (Kangra), Sept 24 (UNI) Indora MLA Malendra Rajan on Thursday said the state government was committed to strengthening rural development and ensuring that development projects were implemented according to the actual needs of people at the grassroots level.
Rajan held meetings with public representatives and prominent residents of Milwan and Ulahadian panchayats to review completed and ongoing development works and discuss future priorities.
He said direct interaction with Panchayat representatives and local residents was essential to assess development needs and make projects more effective. He added that strengthening basic facilities such as roads, drinking water, electricity, education, health and irrigation remained a priority in every Panchayat of the Indora Assembly constituency.
The MLA said the ongoing Panchayat-level review was aimed not merely at collecting information but at ensuring that development plans were implemented in accordance with local requirements.
So far, consultations have been held in 10 Panchayats—Dankwan, Lodhwan, Deothi, Badukhar, Gheta, Bhalakh, Bhogarwan, Rajgir, Milwan and Ulahadian.
Rajan said the review process would continue across the constituency to prepare a detailed assessment of the development needs of each Panchayat and give fresh impetus to rural development through continuous dialogue with public representatives and the people.
