Prof. Prem Kumar Dhumal, Chief Minister speaking on the occasion of launching ceremony of e-samadhan software at Shimla today
Shimla: To empower the citizen, Himachal government on Saturday launched an internet based grievance redressal portal (http://admis.hp.nic.in/esamadhan/), which would enable one to register a complaint with the concerned official but would provide the chief minister’s office and other concerned officers downstream an overview to see that it is timely acted upon.
Speaking on the occasion chief minister Prem Kumar Dhumal said, “the initiative has been taken to fulfill a commitment put forth in the party’s manifesto of providing transparency in our working.”
To respond to ‘E-Samadhan‘, the IT based grievance redressal program, each department has appointed a nodal officer down to the tehsil level who would oversee that all complaints received are timely dealt with, he said.
Main objective is to provide an easy and economical solution to the problem of common man at his door step, the chief minister said. Access for lodging a complaint can be done from any internet based computer and where computers have not penetrated then one can use that Sugham Centre, which are being set up in each panchayat for offering various kind of internet enabled services, he said.
Rajesh Bahadur, director national informatics center Shimla in his presentation demonstrated the working of the program.”For any grievance made, the complainant would get an identity number which would help him to track all the observations and actions resorted to, for redressing the issue,” he said.
Claiming it to be the first such program in the country Bahadur said, “right from block and tehsil level the complaint with one entry would be accessible by the concerned deputy commissioner, the concerned secretary, chief secretary, legislator of the area, the concerned minister and the chief minister.”
Any delays in dealing with the complaints received would automatically build a pressure on the concerned officer because of the very fact that all upstream officers, legislators and ministers would be aware about all pending complaints, said Bahadur.

My heartiest congratulations to all those, who have been working for such a scheme. Himachal Pradesh is doing much better in IT services than the rest of our neighbouring states. I will also appreciate BJP government for trying to “provide transparency in working” as committed in the manifesto. The most notorious departments like, PWD, education etc. are still not included in the list but I hope it will be not forgotten after formal inauguration. A strict follow up from CM office is necessary to realize fruitful results.
I have strong doubts about the non accountable and big hierarchical babudom, having any fear of the highest office during current regime. More so, when heads are more dependent on the interpretations by subordinates. Communication through e-mails/e-samadhan cannot realize good results in an environment where even the most heads are not in a habit to open their mails. I got two such acknowledgments from the CM office in the past but failed to receive any feed back from the concerned departments.
In addition to introducing e-governance projects, the government should try to strengthen the current official communication system. The most important letters are lost after putting dispatch numbers. As the vested interests know the importance of such communications, people are left with no other option but to waste their time in obliging the concerned staff. As the rates of speed posts/couriers are reduced now, government can even bargain for lesser price as was done with BSNL CUG plan for govt. employees. Continuing with the biggest fraudulent practices in such communications over the years, even RTI act cannot provide any help as the ordinary letter is shown dispatched but lost in between.
I think this is the biggest issue that needs to be tackled effectively to deliver transparent services. If not, our official system is not going to improve further and remember, in Himachal Pradesh, it is the root cause of anti incumbency factor to all governments even from those who nests on the same system.
I totally agree with RKS. No amount of technology can bring change in the basic attitude of the govt. babus. Though the effort of the govt is laudable in launching the web portal but how does one makes the babus work? The highest amount of internet activity in a govt office happens when results are made public on Education Board website and everyone is busy taking print outs of the marksheet. Other than that any one hardly uses the internet for any purposeful purpose. Even the departmental heads (IAS class) never use or share their official emails with the public. These are not mentioned on the HP govt website. Untill the govt moves away from the file culture, all these efforts of using technology in daily work are not going to render any fruitful results.

Respected Chief Minister ji;
I would like to bring to your kind knowledge that HRTC buses conductors do not give as per actual fare ticket.
e.g. Day before yesterday, I had journey from Una to Nalagarh at evening. At the time of journey, I had given Rs.50/- to him but he had not given a ticket. He was saying I will be returned Rs. 10/- after reached at your destination. He had returned me Rs. 10/- I had asked one question from him why are you doing such type of things. He replied that I had not earned single rupee today. He has to coordination to other bus conductor. is there any ticket checker or not. On that day he had not given ticket to 4-6 passengers.
Once again I would like to request that please catch such type of scoundrel person of the first water & maintain good environment in H.P.
thanks

Sir, This is regarding One Rank One Pension (OROP)to Defence pensioners. Our beloved CM, when was MP have been taking up this issue in the Parliament. Recently the Punjab Assembly has passed an unanimous resolution recommending grant of OROP which has been sent to the Central Govt. The BJP Chief has also written to the Hon,ble PM to grant OROP to defence veterans. I request the Hon,ble CM to consider passing of a resolution in HP Assembly recommending OROP to defence pensioners and put pressure on the Central Govt. Regards

One more white elephant brought in for publicity…riding on this e-elephant I would like to suggest the web masters of this portal to make it more user friendly or guide general public by organizing /giving in practical demonstrations for its usage, not by siting in secretarial offices and living officially behind tables with press releases.
The common pubic / people who have grave problems are not well versed with technical know how and those who are technically aware and belong to elite class have enough links to get things done straight ways..
There was one more elephant launched for promotion of handicrafts and hand looms, i would request the senior editor to sort out the scale of height that elephant gained since it was launched…
for reference i am putting on the published news link — http://himachal.us/2010/01/18/18125/18125/news/ravinder
& e-hand loom elephant brought in for service..

Respected C.M. Sir
we are facing problem
with private bus (R.K. Bus) oprator for last 4 OR 5 years. He is not going through mentioned route.
The mentioned route is kasouli Solan via Neripul Theog ,Chhaila, Ghoond. When local people requested him to restart bus upon mentioned route, then he gives illogical reasons. Sir we have only 2 overcrowded buses which are feeding 4 panchyats. Which may meet with an accident at any time . Who will take the responsibility of that accident department or that operator? Department should take necessary action like cancellation of his permit etc. and route should be allotted to an other bus operator.
Sir we have still hope that you will take speedy & necessary action against him and restart bus up to Ghoond.
We will be thankful to you for this act of kindness. Yours,
Rajesh Hetta
Vice Pardhan Gram Panchyat
