Gorakhpur: Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath conducted a public hearing session at Gorakhnath Temple's Mahant Digvijaynath Smriti Bhawan on Tuesday, meeting approximately 250 complainants. During the Janata Darshan, CM reviewed individual petitions and issued direct instructions to department heads for time-bound resolutions.
The majority of complaints involved requests for medical treatment funding (38%), land disputes (27%), and administrative grievances (22%), according to the CMO's preliminary categorization.
The Chief Minister mandated that all cases be resolved within 15 working days through the Integrated Grievance Redressal System, which currently maintains an 83% resolution rate statewide.Notably, the event occurred while 14 of Gorakhpur's 20 government hospitals face 40-60% staff vacancies.
The CM's directive for "time-bound resolutions" rings hollow for the 1,200 Gorakhpur residents whose complaints from last Janata Darshan remain unresolved. While media focused on the CM distributing chocolates to children, this constituted just 12 minutes of the 4-hour session.
Meanwhile, the promised "15-day resolution timeline" matches exactly what was pledged - and often missed - in the 2022 grievance manual.
