KISHTWAR: To deepen grassroots engagement and ensure the last-mile delivery of welfare services to tribal communities, the “Dharti Aaba Janjatiya Gramin Utkarsh Abhiyan” (DAJGUA) campaign continued its transformative journey on Day 07 in District Kishtwar, holding a dynamic outreach camp at the Panchayat Office Loundri in Block Drabshalla.
Offering a multi-departmental convergence platform, the campaign brought together representatives from all line departments, including Health, Agriculture, Education, ICDS, Employment, Rural Development and the Food, Civil Supplies & Consumer Affairs (FCS&CA) Department, among others. Their unified presence served to sensitise the predominantly Scheduled Tribe (ST) population about the wide spectrum of government welfare schemes, rights and entitlements.
To facilitate meaningful interaction, dedicated information and service stalls were set up by each department. These offered real-time assistance through on-the-spot beneficiary registration, scheme consultations, application processing and distribution of multilingual informational brochures.
A unique feature of the event was the grievance redressal session, where villagers had the opportunity to present feedback directly to the attending officers. Concerns related to infrastructure, healthcare access, education gaps and delayed scheme benefits were earnestly noted. The officers gave on-the-spot assurances for time-bound resolution, further underscoring the administration’s resolve to foster responsive governance.
Addressing the gathering, field-level officers reiterated the importance of such platforms in bridging administrative efforts with the tribal community. The event facilitated two-way communication, enabling officials not only to inform but also to listen, understand and respond to the unique needs of the tribal population.
The campaign received overwhelming appreciation from the tribal population and local residents, who hailed the outreach as a long-awaited and much-needed governmental presence in their lives. The tribals expressed gratitude for the proactive and empathetic approach adopted by the district administration.
