Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath held a Janta Darshan in Gorakhpur on Friday, where he personally met around 150 people, listened to their grievances, and assured them that every complaint would be addressed through prompt and fair action.

The public interaction marked the second consecutive day of grievance redressal during the Chief Minister's three-day visit to Gorakhpur.

Personally Reviewed Public Complaints

The Janta Darshan was held outside the Mahant Digvijaynath Smriti Bhawan within the Gorakhnath Temple complex.

Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath met each applicant individually, accepted written representations, and issued on-the-spot instructions to officials accompanying him. Applications were forwarded to the relevant administrative and police departments with directions to ensure time-bound and transparent resolution.

He emphasized that every grievance should be handled seriously and without unnecessary delay.

Strict Directions on Crime and Land Encroachment

During the public hearing, several complaints related to crime, illegal land encroachment, and law and order were raised.

The Chief Minister instructed police officials to take strict legal action in such cases and ensure that complainants receive justice without delay.

Officials were also directed to closely monitor the progress of these cases and maintain accountability in resolving them.

Medical Assistance Cases Reviewed

Yogi Adityanath also examined applications seeking financial assistance for medical treatment.

He instructed officials to immediately prepare hospital cost estimates so that eligible beneficiaries could receive government financial support as quickly as possible.

The Chief Minister assured applicants that once the required estimates are submitted, the government would expedite the release of assistance.

Interaction With Families and Children

Several women attended the Janta Darshan along with their children.

During the interaction, the Chief Minister greeted the children, blessed them, and distributed chocolates, creating a friendly atmosphere during the public outreach programme.

Visit to Gorakhnath Temple Gaushala

Later in the morning, Yogi Adityanath visited the gaushala (cowshed) at the Gorakhnath Temple.

Temple officials said the Chief Minister called several cows by their names, and the animals responded by approaching him. He spent time feeding them jaggery and bread, patted them affectionately, and also offered food to other cattle and Nandi housed at the cowshed.

Before leaving, he instructed the gaushala staff to continue ensuring proper care, nutrition, and welfare of the animals.

Focus on Responsive Governance

The Janta Darshan programme remains one of the Uttar Pradesh government's key public outreach initiatives, allowing citizens to directly present their concerns before the Chief Minister.

Officials said the complaints received during the session covered a range of issues, including law and order, land disputes, healthcare assistance, revenue matters, and other administrative concerns.

The Chief Minister reiterated that the state government is committed to ensuring quick, transparent, and citizen-centric grievance redressal.
