Good governance helps poor: Manipur CM

Date:

 Manipur Chief Minister, N Biren Singh on Thursday called for good governance to help the poor.

He was speaking at the inauguration program of Good Governance Week at CM Secretariat, Imphal. The nationwide campaign “Prashasan Gaon Ki Ore” under Good Governance Week will be held from the 19th to the 24th of December, 2024.

The Chief Minister said the Good Governance Day is celebrated to commemorate the birth anniversary of former Prime Minister, late Atal Bihari Vajpayee on 25th of December, for his statesmanship and visionary leadership.

The Chief Minister recalled that on being sworn in as the Chief Minister of Manipur in March 2017, the idea to make Manipur an inclusive State with equal developments in both hills and valleys came to his mind at the first instance. As such, the government introduced the Go to Hills mission to bridge the developmental gaps across the State. After knowing the ground reports of the far-flung areas through the Go to Hills mission, the Go to Village mission was introduced to take governance at the doorsteps of the people, he added.

Biren, further stated that good governance is governance for the people and to deliver services to the people with transparency and accountability. People will only have trust in the government when the services are delivered as promised, he added.

The Chief Minister stated that the situation in the State has been improving, and praised the Deputy Commissioners especially those posted in the hill districts for performing their duties sincerely during this difficult time. He also mentioned that the bureaucrats are the backbone to deliver good governance for the people and appealed to the officers performing duties in the hill districts not to compromise on key issues and work in the larger interest of the nation. The government should entertain the grievances of the public and work hard to redress the same to gain confidence and trust of the public, he added.

Speaking on the various welfare schemes initiated by the government for the people, the Chief Minister also elaborated on details of schemes like the Chief Minister Gi Hakshelgi Tengbang, Chief Minister Health for All, Widows Pension Scheme, CM Da Haisi etc.

As a part of the program laptops were distributed to newly appointed Civil Service Officers. A presentation on Good Governance Week was made by Joint Secretary, Administrative Reforms Division A. Shivadas Sharma.
