These camps aim to fulfill the gaps in service delivery by identifying eligible beneficiaries and covering them on the spot. I appeal to the public to come forward, participate wholeheartedly, and ensure that no eligible beneficiary is left behind,DC Said.
DC emphasized that the camps will serve as a single-window platform for the saturation of benefits across critical sectors, including:
Aadhaar services,PM-JAY / Ayushman Bharat health cards,Jan Dhan Yojana / Bank account openings,Agriculture & allied welfare schemes,Har Ghar Nal Se Jal (drinking water supply),Electricity connections,
Health services & mobilisation,Education gap reduction,Skill development and training,Food security (ration and nutrition schemes), RDD schemes,Youth Services & Sports,Forest rights and other support initiatives.
All concerned departments have been instructed to prepare baseline data while designated officers will be present during the camps to resolve issues on the spot.

The Deputy Commissioner highlighted the importance of Janbhagidari (public participation) and called on community leaders, PRI representatives, youth, and civil society organizations to assist in spreading awareness and ensuring full community engagement.
