SUNPURA : The Lohit district administration on Thursday organised a Jan Kalyan Shivir (JKS) at Government Secondary School, Yealing under Sunpura Circle, aimed at bringing essential government services and welfare schemes directly to the people.
The outreach programme was organised as part of the nationwide observance marking 12 years of governance, development and public welfare under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Tezu-Sunpura MLA Dr Mohesh Chai attended the programme as the chief guest. He was accompanied by Lohit in-charge Deputy Commissioner, Lohit Superintendent of Police, Zilla Parishad Members from Tezu and Sunpura, local panchayat leaders and heads of various government departments.
Addressing the gathering, Dr Chai urged residents to take full advantage of the services and welfare schemes being offered through the camp. He said such initiatives help bridge the gap between the administration and the public by ensuring easier access to government services and faster grievance redressal.
Highlighting the objectives of the Jan Kalyan Shivir, the MLA said the programme reflects the government’s commitment to public welfare and inclusive development. He noted that several flagship schemes of the Central Government, including Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana-Gramin (PMAY-G), Jal Jeevan Mission (JJM), Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM) and Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana, have significantly benefited women, economically weaker sections and farmers across the country.
Dr Chai also spoke on women’s empowerment and political participation, citing the growing role of women in local governance through reservation in Panchayati Raj institutions. He further appreciated the transparency introduced in recruitment processes through the Arunachal Pradesh Staff Selection Board (APSSB), which has provided a fair platform for recruitment to Group C and Group D posts.
The camp witnessed a large public turnout, with hundreds of beneficiaries availing on-the-spot services, enrolment facilities and information related to various Central and State Government welfare schemes. (DIPR)
