This Act came into force in 2015 and the government has included thousands of schemes under it so as to provide easy services to the people of the state at a greater speed, he said.

He also said that such services should be effectively implemented and taken to the people.
"The responsibility taken up by the district administration to take the Service Guarantee Act to every citizen of the district is something that needs to be appreciated. Now various schemes of the government will be reaching door to door, effectively." the Chief Minister said.
He also said that various services initiated by the district administration, including service at the door steps, Aaple Sarkar web portal, RTS mobile application, WhatsApp chatbot, one model Aaple Sarkar service centre in every taluka, QR code concept for registering grievances of the people, the planning for standardising the offices and accelerating the work of administration are applaudable.
The Chief Minister also released a documentary providing information about the project.
