(*including PM-JANMAN)

(c) to (e): Grievance redressal is an integral and important part in the  implementation  of  the  programme  and  being  resolved  as  per guidelines  of  the  schemes  on  priorities.  There  is  a  procedure  of lodging  complaints  on  the  Centralized  Public  Grievance  Redressal and  Monitoring  System  (CPGRAMS)  portal  (pgportal.gov.in).  The complaints received in the Ministry through CPGRAMs or otherwise, are forwarded to the respective State Governments for redressal of the  grievance  and  furnishing  the  Action  Taken  Report  to  the Ministry  under  intimation  to  the  complainant  within  one  month  of

receipt of the complaint. However, under MGNREGS, as per records available on the Centralized Public Grievance Redress and Monitoring  System  (CPGRAMS),  a  total  of  10  grievances  were received  from  Nohar  and  Bhadra  Blocks  of  Hanumangarh  district and 3 grievances were received from Churu district during the last three  financial  years.  All  such  grievances  were  referred  to  State Government for conducting inquiry into and further follow-up action on the same.

So far as the details of funds allocated and utilized to the SubDivisional  Headquarters  of  Rajasthan  are  concerned,  this  Ministry does not maintain such data. However, funds under various schemes/programmes,  implemented  by  MoRD  are  allocated  to  the States/UTs,  including  in  the  State  of  Rajasthan,  which  in  turn release to the concerned districts/local bodies. Hence, this Ministry does not allocate funds directly to any Sub-Divisional Headquarters, including Churu and Hanumangarh districts.
