- Dhamtari sets an example – over 85% of 11,621 applications resolved promptly,
with issues ranging from nano urea to the ‘PM Kisan Samman Nidhi’ resolved on the spot.
In line with the Chhattisgarh government’s vision of prompt, transparent, and accountable resolution of public problems, the “Good Governance Festival 2026” campaign, being run by the Dhamtari district administration, is achieving new milestones of success. Under the Collector’s able guidance, all departments, municipal bodies, district panchayats, and tehsil offices in the district are working in mission mode. Of the 11,621 applications filed so far under this mega-campaign, over 8,500 have been resolved in record time, while the remaining cases are being processed at a rapid pace.
The cluster model is gaining momentum, with
camps being organized in 15-20 villages. The district administration has taken a unique initiative to ensure villagers don’t have to run around offices. Special camps are being organized by forming clusters in the district’s 24 gram panchayats, each encompassing 15 to 20 villages. This is providing villagers with access to administrative services within their own area.
