The event was held at the Mini Secretariat Bandipora under the chairmanship of Deputy Commissioner (DC) Bandipora, Indu Kanwal Chib.
On the occasion, the Deputy Commissioner inaugurated the ‘Dharti Aaba Janbhagidari Abhiyan: Awareness and Benefit Saturation Camp’, a 15-day campaign being organised across the district to commemorate the 150th birth anniversary of Bhagwan Birsa Munda Sahib. The campaign aims to promote saturation of government welfare schemes, enhance awareness among tribal communities, and strengthen participatory governance through active community engagement.
During the felicitation ceremony, the DC lauded the district’s achievement of national-level recognition for outstanding performance under the Aadi Karmayogi initiative. The DC urged officers to continue their dedication towards inclusive development and invited innovative suggestions for strengthening the Village Development Programme under Aadi Karmayogi.

The district’s comprehensive and participatory approach, he said, turned the initial vision into a successful model of tribal development.
Similarly, the Block Development Officer, Gurez, presented the block-level progress, showcasing activities like village orientation, wall paintings, Seva Kendras, special gram sabhas, and identification of infrastructural gaps under the programme. The Deputy Commissioner directed that each tribal village should have one village map painting displayed prominently and ensured that all tribal populations are included in the fortnight-long campaign under the Dharti Aaba Janbhagidari Abhiyan.
