Kiran Bedi hails Pondy CM’s decision to visit constituencies

Narayanasamy had said on Saturday that the camps would begin next month and that no discrimination would be made between the ruling and opposition parties’ segments.

In her WhatsApp message on Sunday, Bedi described herself as ‘your (people`s representatives) well wisher,’ thanked the political representatives for deciding to undertake the visits and urged them to consider some suggestions she and ‘team Raj Nivas’ had given ever since she assumed office in May 2016.

These included making the constituencies open defecation free,regular visits to dispensaries, government offices,- schools and market centres to meet people and hear their grievances. Holding town hall meetings once a month, where people with grievance or suggestion could speak out was another such, she said.

“Puducherry will be cleaner, safer and happier,” she added.

She tweeted that for transforming India, public officials, elected and appointed members must attend to people`s needs and grievances on a daily basis. There has been a war of words between the former IPS officer and the government on several occasions, the latest being the one relating to establishment of the port here.
