Palamu district is a large district geographically and administratively. According to the district website, there are 21 blocks, 5 urban bodies and 28 police stations, due to which the challenge of service delivery is also big.
Access to roads, drinking water, health, education and social security schemes in rural areas is the main basis of development. By strengthening monitoring at the block level, the impact of the schemes can be seen better.
Local people say that regular review and grievance redressal camps should be organized at the Panchayat level. With this, the problems of remote villages will reach the district headquarters quickly.
