Mulugu: Mulugu district has emerged as a model district under the state government's 99-day Praja Palana–Pragathi Pranalika initiative by recording significant progress in governance, welfare, and development programmes, special officer Hanumanth K. Jandage said on Tuesday.

Addressing a review meeting at the collectorate conference hall, Jandage said the programme has strengthened the link between the government and the public by ensuring responsive and accessible administration.

His presentation highlighted the progress in resolving land-related grievances received through Prajavani and Gram Sabhas, expediting file clearances, improving sanitation, strengthening healthcare services, implementing welfare schemes and addressing public grievances. Jandage commended the district administration for its coordinated approach and said the combined efforts of various departments have resulted in improved service delivery and tangible benefits for citizens.

The special officer highlighted several initiatives undertaken in the district, including child-focused Gram Sabhas and campaigns against child marriage by the women and child welfare department, educational festivals and technology-oriented training programmes by the education department, and activities taken up under the mahila shakti programme. The meeting reviewed progress in providing electricity facilities at anganwadi centres, identification of eligible farmers for oil palm cultivation, preparedness of schools for the new academic year, implementation of Indiramma housing projects and welfare schemes such as Mahalakshmi and Cheyutha, issuance of new ration cards and ongoing infrastructure development works.

Jandage said a comprehensive report on the district's achievements is being prepared for submission to the state government. He called for continued coordination among departments to ensure that pending goals are achieved. Later speaking to media, the special officer said several initiatives undertaken in Mulugu district could serve as models for replication in other parts of the state.
