The state of Bhubaneswar has recently undergone some changes in its administration, as announced by the government on Saturday. These changes have overturned some of the decisions made by the previous government. Among the major moves made by the new government are the resumption of the Chief Minister's Grievance Cell, the renaming of the LAccMI bus services, and a change in the school uniform.
According to official sources, Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi will now be regularly hearing public grievances at the designated cell in Unit-5 area, starting from July 1st. The hearing will take place at 11:00 am and registration for the hearing will be open from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm on the same day. Previously, the CM had been meeting with people and addressing their issues at the State Guest House for almost three weeks after taking office.
Additionally, the Bhubaneswar Development Authority will also resume hearing grievances from the same date, on every Monday between 11:00 am and 1:30 pm. The government has also announced the renaming of the Location Accessible Multi-modal Initiative, which will now be known as 'Mukhyamantri Bus Seva'. This decision was made in response to numerous complaints from passengers about the poor execution of the scheme. Transport, Mines and Steel Minister Bibhuti Bhusan Jena stated that discussions have already taken place and the service will be made available in the state soon. He also mentioned that no party symbols will be used in the service, as all the schemes are meant for the welfare of the people.
In an effort to improve public transport during Lord Jagannath's Rath Yatra, buses will now run from every block in the state. This is a crucial decision, considering the failure of the previous government's LAccMI scheme, which aimed to establish a seamless public transport network from panchayats to the state capital. Many have alleged that the scheme was a complete failure, with expensive buses gathering dust and getting damaged due to a lack of proper maintenance.
Another important decision taken by the government is the potential change in the uniform of high school students in the near future. The previous government had changed the color of the uniform, and the new government is now holding consultations on this matter. A decision will be made soon, as stated by the minister. It is worth noting that all government schemes will be focused on the welfare of the people, and no party symbols will be used. With these changes in place, the government hopes to improve the overall functioning and efficiency of the state.
