A senior government official said it was noticed that while the volume of grievances being resolved by various departments was satisfactory, the feedback from many of the complainants was that there was scope for improvement.
Taking this into consideration, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal recently convened a meeting with the HoDs of all departments during which they were directed to personally monitor the grievance resolution process to ensure timely and effective handling of cases.
The official said that, accordingly, about 500 citizens, who were not satisfied with the resolutions previously made by the department were personally contacted on phone on behalf of the PGMS team and invited to attend these sessions.
"All these complainants were separately also reminded about the sessions via SMS with details of location.
"It was also made sure that 2-3 representatives from the PGMS team would be present at each public hearing camp for ensuring the smooth conduct of these," the official added.
The report documents were designed to also collect the complainants' feedback regarding the personal hearing given by labour department officials and the subsequent resolutions made by them.
