It also explains how departments process applications after submission, so that the entire procedure becomes easy to understand.
Printed copies of these booklets have been sent to all panchayat representatives, department heads, government libraries, and district-level offices with the objective of ensuring that information about government schemes reaches the grassroots level, especially village panchayats.
The discussion saw participation of several distinguished guests, including senior officials from the Information Department, representatives from All India Radio and Doordarshan, and regional media. They shared their views on making government schemes more effective and impactful.
