Jammu: The Jammu Municipal Corporation (JMC) organized a Public Samvaad, an outreach initiative designed to address the concerns of the general public, encourage active community participation, and provide solutions to their grievances.
The event was held at Bharat Mata Patoli Park in Ward No. 35, Janipur and was led by JMC Commissioner Dr. Devansh Yadav.
The event saw active participation from ex-councillors, prominent citizens, Swachhata Champions, Swachhata Ambassadors, NGOs, members of Mohalla Welfare Committees, and the general public.
A range of JMC officers, including the Joint Commissioner (A), Joint Commissioner (W), Secretary JMC, Deputy Director (Planning), and others, also attended the program.
