Panchkula DC bars late officials from Grievance Camp, warns of disciplinary action

Panchkula, Oct 15 (UNI) Panchkula Deputy Commissioner Satpal Sharma on Thursday barred officials arriving after 10 am from entering the Samadhan Shivir at the Mini Secretariat, warning that disciplinary action would follow any breach of punctuality.
Sharma said the grievance redressal camp is held every Monday and Thursday from 10 am to noon under Haryana Government directions. He directed officials to resolve public complaints promptly and on priority, making it clear that delays and negligence would not be tolerated.
During the camp, residents of Chhota Trilokpur alleged that their ration depot was distributing ration late and in less than the prescribed quantity. The DC directed the District Food and Supplies Controller to investigate the complaint and submit a report by the evening. In response to a complaint of encroachment outside a house in Dharampur Colony, he directed the Pinjore SHO to conduct an inquiry and submit a report within a week.
Sharma said Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini joins the camps through video conferencing and monitors action taken on public grievances. He also reviewed pending complaints on CM Window, Jan Samvad, SMGT and CPGRAMS, directing officials to clear them and submit a compliance report by next Friday.
The DC urged residents to use the twice-weekly camps to seek redressal of their grievances.
