During the initiative, many long-standing disputes were addressed. A member of the PVTG Birhor community in Palkot block, Magdali Birhor, had struggled for years with a family land dispute involving claims from her in-laws. The administration's intervention settled the dispute, and she received official ownership documentation. Similarly, Pramila Nooram from Raidih block, who had been waiting for months, received her pending caste certificate during the session.
District Commissioner Prerna Dixit said the main objective of Anchal Diwas is to resolve land and other matters nearest to residents' homes, reducing the need for them to travel long distances. She added that the initiative has addressed a wide range of issues, including land disputes, mutation cases, agriculture loan-related problems, natural disaster assistance, and the issuance of caste, income, and residential certificates.
In the first phase, which concluded earlier this month, a total of 933 cases were received across all 12 circle offices. Of these, 746 were resolved on the spot, while 187 cases are still being processed. The initiative was conducted every Saturday and aimed to ensure timely and transparent resolution of pending disputes. The success of Anchal Diwas demonstrates the administration's commitment to improving governance and providing practical support at the grassroots level.
