Subject:-Regarding ban on JANTA DARBAR by government and bureaucrats.

Sirs,

It appears ridiculous that our rich constitution has distributed requisite powers to government and bureaucrats with rich infrastructure to sort out public grievances systematically but the same hide their inefficiency under the pretext of JANTA DARBAR.

This is a growing fashion in our country to hold JANTA DARBAR at different hierarchy. There might be an argument behind holding JANTA DARBAR that the over-burdened judiciary would be eased but we should never forget that government and bureaucrats are not the accessories to the entire system in our country. If the government or bureaucrats happen to hold JANTA DARBAR, the work and issues concerning their department shall hamper. The consequences JANTA DARBAR we can see now a days that the judiciary is hearing the cases regarding repairing of roads, covering of manholes, construction of drain, removal of khatals (cowsheds) removal of encroachment, stopping the use of pressure horns, removal of foreign objects from vehicle glass, removal of garbage and many other such petty issues which may well be sorted out at government and bureaucratic levels.

We see that JANTA DARBAR receives the complaint refused or not entertained by authorities and JANTA DARBAR resends the similar complaints to the same authorities somehow wasting time and befooling the common man. If JANTA DARBAR is meant for taking punitive actions against the authorities failing to redress the grievance then JANTA DARBAR should be promoted as well as given constitutional status otherwise there should be self-imposed ban on JANTA DARBAR or it should be legally banned.

I, therefore, appeal you to revisit the concept of JANTA DARBAR and come out with any objective of JANTA DARBAR.
