Mudhalvarin Mugavari
Under the scheme that helps people get solutions for their issues from 13 departments including housing and urban development, district administration, municipal administration and disaster management, people can submit petitions related to power, water and UGSS connection, change of name in documents, land transfer, heir, community, birth and death certificates, house plan approval, tax, commercial licence, solid waste management, identity card for street vendors, rural development, Adi Dravidar Welfare, differently abled welfare, labour and MSME.
However, petitions have been received for grievances such as pension, benefits of other schemes such as Magalir Urimay Tittham and employment. “These petitions are not related to Mudhalvarin Mugavari, wherein grievances that can be resolved within 30 days are listed. The rest will be resolved in a longer time frame by the department concerned,” Mr. Prabhakaran told The Hindu.
