Grama One centre providing over 750 services inaugurated at Udyavara

Attending the programme virtually, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai says that over 3,000 such centres have become functional in State

Udupi district in-charge and Minister for Fisheries and Ports S. Angara on Wednesday inaugurated a Grama One centre at Udyavara Gram Panchayat, said to be the first of its kind in the State, on the occasion of the Republic Day.

Speaking virtually on the occasion, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai said that Grama One centres have been conceptualised to enable rural people to avail themselves of necessary government services on their doorsteps without the intervention of any middlemen. Over six lakh applications have been disposed of in four districts where the project is on pilot mode.

Over 3,000 such centres became functional in an equal number of villages in 12 districts across the State on Wednesday. While Deputy Commissioners have to ensure proper functioning of these centres, district in-charge Ministers should compulsorily visit them during their district tours, Mr. Bommai said.
