Adluri directs officials to resolve public grievances quickly
The Story in Brief
Telangana SC and ST welfare minister Adluri Lakshman Kumar on Wednesday said the Congress government is committed to addressing public grievances directly, rather than making people visit multiple offices. He was speaking at a face-to-face grievance redressal programme at Gandhi Bhavan in Hyderabad, where people from surrounding districts submitted representations, mostly seeking Indiramma houses and ration cards.
Adluri said every grievance will be followed up until it is resolved, and directed officials to expedite urgent matters. He added that issues of SCs, STs, persons with disabilities, senior citizens, transgender persons, and the poor will be prioritised. The minister also criticised the previous BRS government for not giving adequate importance to hearing people's grievances, alleging that people lacked an effective platform under the BRS tenure.
Indian Opinion Analysis
This grievance redressal drive is part of the Congress government's effort to project an accessible image after coming to power in Telangana last year. The focus on Indiramma houses and ration cards reflects the two most pressing demands among rural poor voters. The minister's attack on the BRS is routine, but the real test will be whether these representations lead to measurable outcomes before the next election cycle. The number of pending applications will be a key number to watch in coming months.
