It has facility to lodge the complaints online as well as through mobile application, upload the geo-referenced photographs as well as track the complaints online. These complaints are marked to the field officers of the 81 line departments in the State.  
These complaints are to be resolved by the field functionaries within 4 days, else these are escalated to the senior officers of concerned departments. Once work is completed, it is to be verified and certified by the Head of the Department before the complaint is closed. To enable people to identify the issues, weekly “Village Walks” are conducted on every Thursday and ‘Aamar Sarkar Day’ is observed on every Monday in each of the 1,176 Gram Panchayats and village committees.
