Chamling urges administration to be responsible and pro-common people

Rorathang (Sikkim), Jan 17 (IANS) Sikkim Chief Minister Pawan Chamling on Thursday urged the administration to be responsible and pro-common man so as to ensure effective implementation of schemes.

Highlighting the milestones achieved by the state in the last 24 years, the Chief Minister said it is not a political party alone who takes care of the people, but the administration as well.

Addressing the crowd after inaugurating the Janta Mela here, Chamling urged those in the administrative sectors to be responsible and provide and cater to the common man for the schemes to be implemented effectively.

He spoke on the stable socio-political status of Sikkim, and said it is important to safeguard everybody's democratic rights and the state under the present government has never had any conflict or insurgencies.

He said even when neighbouring states have had strikes and agitations, Sikkim hasn't been affected in regard to food and ration, safety and security within the state.

Chamling handed over token grants/cash benefits, as also various other goodies including electronic rice cookers, water filters, compost bins and sound system.
