In his speech, Chief Minister said, “The CM Connect Programme has different levels but the main essence of it is to bring the administration closer to the people and to listen to the problems of people first hand. It is not for the government to make programmes, schemes and policies sitting from our offices but to curate them according to what the people require. We are reaching out to know your problems and know what is working and what is not. This is a great platform because we have representatives from all the government departments to give the needed answers and we can also chalk out solutions for various issues.”

People attending the program voiced their concerns and issues in various departments like in the Jal Jeevan Mission (JJM), education, deplorable condition of the VIP Road and concerns on more support towards the differently abled.
