During this, the Chief Minister described Gram Panchayat Development Officers as the foundation of the democratic system. He said that developed Uttarakhand is the collective goal of all of us and called upon the youth to work dedicatedly for the development of villages.
On Sunday, Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami presented appointment letters to 08 Assistant Accountants and 342 Gram Panchayat Development Officers of the Panchayati Raj Department in the appointment letter distribution ceremony organized by the Panchayati Raj Department at the Chief Sevak Sadan located at the Chief Minister's residence. Assistant Accountants have been selected through the Public Service Commission and Gram Panchayat Development Officers have been selected through the Subordinate Services Selection Commission.
Chief Minister Dhami said that the appointed accountants and Gram Panchayat Development Officers are not only the primary units of our democratic system but are also its foundation. The stronger the Panchayati Raj system is, the stronger our democracy will be, only then Suraj's vision can be realized.
The Chief Minister said that all of you play an important role in conveying the problems of the people standing at the last end of the society, their complaints to the government and making the public welfare works being done by the government available to the people. Today the government itself is reaching out to the last person of the society, empowering him and providing him the benefits of various schemes. Today, whether it is LPG gas connection, electricity connection, water connection, construction of Izzatghars under Swachh Bharat Abhiyan or other schemes, the deprived section of the society is also included in the center of every scheme of the government.
He said that in the government running under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, our priority is to fulfill the needs of the deprived. We are continuously making efforts that development should not be limited to cities only, but its benefits should reach all the people in rural areas.
The Chief Minister said that the soul of India resides in the villages, but in the past this was not given due attention and from the point of view of development, the villages were kept at the lowest position and the money sent to the villages did not reach there. Was, but the government led by Prime Minister Modi completely changed this situation. The government launched Jan-Dhan Yojana, opened bank accounts of more than 50 crore village people across the country, made Post Office Payment Bank reach to the villages using post offices and today its effect is visible in every village of the country. The money from the schemes is going directly into the people's accounts.
He said that our government is doing everything for the development of villages, which could not be done earlier due to lack of willpower. If our youth remain dedicated to the development of villages with the spirit of upliftment of their villages, then there can be no hindrance in the development of villages. He appealed to the employees to work considering the villages as their home, so that the development of the villages can get wings.
He said that earlier there was a lack of transparency in the recruitment examinations, but we worked to bring transparency in the recruitment examinations and after the enactment of the country's most stringent anti-copying law in the state, examinations are now being conducted in a time bound manner along with transparency. It is a result of the anti-copying law that we are working every day to provide employment to eligible youth in different departments by providing them appointment letters.
The Chief Minister said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi, works of public interest are being carried out by moving forward on the mantra of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas and Sabka Prayas. Today, Uttarakhand is moving ahead fulfilling the aspirations of the people in an unprecedented environment of development and trust.
The goal of developed Uttarakhand is the collective goal of all of us and it can be achieved only through collective efforts. He appealed to all the youth of the state to cooperate in the efforts being made to fulfill our “optionless resolution” of making Uttarakhand the best state of the country. On this occasion, Director Panchayati Raj Nidhi Yadav gave information about the action plan of the Panchayati Raj Department.
In the program, MLA Durgeshwar Lal, Additional Secretary Panchayati Raj Alok Kumar Pandey, Joint Director R.K. N. Tripathi, Deputy Director Manoj Kumar Tiwari, Nodal Officer Atul Pratap Singh, newly appointed personnel and concerned officers were present.
