On this occasion, CM Patel stated that PM Modi set the true course for good governance and inspired everyone to follow that path, according to an official release.

He said the SWAGAT initiative launched by him has brought transformational change in people’s lives, becoming an effective medium for solving problems in a paperless, transparent, and hassle-free manner.

Prime Minister’s successful efforts to establish a structured grievance redressal system for common citizens, including the poor, underprivileged and rural communities, resulted in the state being gifted with the ‘SWAGAT’ initiative.

He noted that at a time when the use of technology for online grievance redressal was still a subject of discussion in the country, PM launched the SWAGAT online public grievance redressal programme on April 24, 2003.

The SWAGAT programme was launched with the primary aim of leveraging technology to create an effective link between citizens and the government. He stated that it has become a reliable platform for addressing citizens’ everyday grievances swiftly, efficiently and within a defined timeframe. (ANI)
