U.P. GOVT SLOW IN COMPLAINT REDRESSAL: RTI

Is UP chief minister Akhilesh Yadav losing grip over the bureaucracy?
So it seems if one believes the disclosures made through a RTI
response on an application field by a Lucknow resident Urvashi Sharma.


Ms Urvashi Sharma has filed an application under the RTI, wanting to
know what action had been taken on complaints received by the chief
minister Akhilesh Yadav's office between March and October 2012 and
also the action taken during the first six month when Ms Mayawati was
in power.


The response that Ms Urvashi Sharma has received shows that nearly
60.96 per cent of complaints were attended to in the Mayawati regime
but in the Akhilesh regime, the percentage of complaints attended to
is merely 4.18. According to official figures, a tot-al of 79,086
complaints were received in the Mayawati regime betw-een 13 May 2007
and 17 November 2009. About 48, 217 complaints were attended to by the
officers. In the Akhilesh regime, 94,773 comlaints have been rece-ived
between March 15 and October 3.
