The government has also partnered with Common Service Centres (CSCs) to assist rural citizens in filing grievances.

Dr. Singh’s statements reinforce the government\u2019s dedication to ethical governance and effective grievance redressal systems, aiming to build public trust and ensure the accountability of administrative and police services.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
