The Story in Brief
Telangana DGP CV Anand on Sunday launched 'TG-VEER', a grievance portal for families of police martyrs. He visited Warangal and met 28 families of personnel who died fighting Maoists. The portal allows families to register issues about financial aid, compassionate appointments, plot allotment, and other benefits.
The portal also stores the martyr's service record, family data, and benefits received, along with a central repository of government orders. Officers can track grievances at unit and state levels. The DGP gave QR-code-enabled family cards that link directly to the portal. He assured families he would take up pending matters like ex-gratia and pension with the government.
The Indian Opinion
A dedicated portal is a welcome move, but families have waited years for ex-gratia and plot allotments. The real test is whether TG-VEER moves complaints faster than paper files. If senior officers actually monitor it and the government clears pending dues, this will earn trust. Otherwise, it is just another website. Watch for the number of grievances resolved in the first quarter.
