Raipur. Under the leadership of Chief Minister Shri Vishnu Deo Sai, the Jan Darshan program held today at the Chief Minister’s residence once again proved that when governance is sensitive, people’s dreams and faith are given new wings.
Citizens from various districts of the state reached the venue to present their problems, suggestions, and aspirations before the Chief Minister. Shri Sai patiently listened to each applicant and instructed officials to provide on-the-spot solutions.
The event showcased an inspiring example of government accountability, compassion, and swift decision-making.
Jan Darshan – A Strong Bond of People’s Trust
Chief Minister Shri Sai said that Jan Darshan is a symbol of the government’s sensitivity and accountability.
He emphasized, “Our effort is to resolve as many grievances as possible on the same day.”
Women, students, farmers, senior citizens, and differently-abled individuals attended the program in large numbers. Applications related to housing, scholarships, employment, health, and social security were presented, most of which were resolved immediately.
The visible relief and satisfaction on people’s faces were clear signs of the program’s success.
Poonam’s Smile Moved Everyone
Eleven-year-old Poonam from Raipur, who suffers from cerebral palsy, became the emotional highlight of the Jan Darshan.
The Chief Minister took responsibility for her education, announcing her admission to a special school and granting a scholarship.
The moment turned emotional for everyone present, as the Chief Minister personally took charge of shaping the young girl’s future.
Ankush Dewangan’s Marble Micro-Art Wins Hearts
Artist Ankush Dewangan from Bhilai presented his extraordinary creation — a miniature marble sculpture of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi — during the program.
The sculpture, only half a centimeter tall, can be viewed only under a microscopic lens.
The Chief Minister praised Ankush’s work, calling it “a remarkable example of dedication and patience.”
Shivkumar Nirala’s Creative Political Map
Shivkumar Nirala from Sarangarh-Bilaigarh presented the Chief Minister with a “Map of Chhattisgarh’s Political Journey.”
The artwork included seat-wise analysis of Lok Sabha and Assembly elections since 1998, along with artistic depictions of representatives.
The Chief Minister remarked, “This is not just about statistics, but a beautiful example of creative thought.”
Manish’s Smile Reflects Renewed Confidence
Differently-abled youth Manish Khunte from Raipur arrived at Jan Darshan on his new battery-operated scooter — the same one sanctioned for him by the Chief Minister in a previous session.
The Chief Minister interacted warmly with him and took a selfie together.
Manish shared, “Now I can move around freely — this marks a new beginning in my life.”
New Hostel Building for Scheduled Caste Students
Taking cognizance of the dilapidated condition of the boys’ hostel for Scheduled Caste students in Raipur, the Chief Minister directed the construction of a new, fully equipped 200-seater hostel.
He stated that providing a safe and supportive learning environment for students is a top priority for the government.
Hearing Aid Restores Raman’s World of Sound
Raman Nirmalkar, a resident of Brahman Para, Raipur, was provided a hearing aid by the Chief Minister on the spot.
An emotional Raman said, “The Chief Minister not only heard my voice but also restored my ability to hear the world again.”
Interaction with Sportspersons – A Blend of Empathy and Encouragement
The Chief Minister interacted with members of the Women’s Self-Defense Organization and assured them of full support for their sports pursuits.
During the same event, Pintu Sahu, a differently-abled rugby player from Abhanpur, was sanctioned financial assistance of ₹90,000.
Pintu said, “This support marks a new beginning in my sporting journey.”
Jan Darshan – A Bridge of Trust Between People and Government
By the end of the Jan Darshan, people’s faces reflected satisfaction and faith.
It was not merely a platform for grievance redressal but also a strong bridge for dialogue between the government and its citizens.
As attendees expressed, “Here, every voice is heard and every problem finds a solution.”
