We conduct audits and submit reports to the people."

"In 2016, we made 600 promises to the people and out of that 520 projects have been fulfilled. The situation was very uncertain in 2018 with the state being affected by a flood and later its effects made it critical. Then the global pandemic Covid made the conditions here severe still the system managed to handle the situation. All this shows the efficiency of this government", the CM added.
The chief minister further pointed out the effective r-governance system in the sectors including health, revenue and the state home department. He also highlighted the works of the cyber crimes department for being quick in response to investigating cases and setting an example to the nation.
