    JK Govt Conducts Social Audit Of Works In 4291 Panchayats

    [ad_1]

    SRINAGAR: On April 4, the government of Jammu and Kashmir announced that it has successfully conducted a social audit of works in all 4291 Gram Panchayats in the union territory, aimed at improving transparency and accountability in the implementation of various schemes and programs. This accomplishment was made possible thanks to the unwavering support of Commissioner Secretary RD&PR, Mandeep Kaur, and the tireless efforts of District Resource Persons (DRPs), Block Resource Persons (BRPs), Programme officers (POs), and SHG members from NRLM as Village Resource Persons (VRPs).

    The field team, which included DRPs, BRPs/POs, and VRPs, played a crucial role in the success of these social audits by providing technical support and assistance to the community members and the department. The DRPs and BRPs, with their in-depth knowledge of local context and government schemes and programs, helped verify the records and documents related to the schemes and provided vital inputs.

    The VRPs, on the other hand, acted as a bridge between the community members and the social audit team, and helped identify the issues and difficulties faced by the local inhabitants.

    It’s worth mentioning that the department has also expanded the scope of social audits in the UT by including SBM (G) and PMAY (G) from March 1, 2023, and additional schemes of RDD and other departments are expected to be brought within its purview soon.
