Jamshedpur: A district level orientation meeting-cum-workshop under the Adi Karmayogi Abhiyan was organized at the Collectorate Auditorium today, following the directions of Deputy Commissioner Karn Satyarthi. The workshop aimed at giving new direction to rural development through community participation and solution-based approaches.
The programme was chaired by Deputy Development Commissioner Nagendra Paswan and attended by officers from Welfare, Social Welfare, Education, Health, Technical Department, as well as all Block Development Officers of the district. Officials informed that a three-day training programme is scheduled to be held at Sigdora Town Hall from August 28 to 30.
During the workshop, the Deputy Development Commissioner stressed that the main goal of the campaign is to ensure effective implementation of schemes for the holistic development of tribal communities. He said Adi Karmayogi centres will be set up at village level, displaying the name and contact details of nodal officers, enabling villagers to directly raise their issues. Each village will decide its priorities, and development plans will be implemented accordingly, he added.
Emphasizing the importance of convergence of resources, Paswan said the active involvement of Gram Panchayat secretaries, volunteers and local communities is crucial. The campaign will also be linked to a digital platform to provide villagers access to multiple services and schemes in one place, ultimately paving the way for self-reliant and empowered villages.
The Adi Karmayogi Abhiyan has been structured into three phases to ensure participation from all sections of society. Under the Adi Sahyogi phase, teachers, doctors and professionals will provide guidance. In the Adi Sathi phase, self-help groups, Mahila Mandals, elderly, youth and public representatives will assist in implementation. The Karmayogi phase will involve active local community workers in execution.
The orientation programme marked the beginning of a district-wide effort to integrate government schemes with community-driven solutions, with the aim of building a sustainable and participatory model of rural development.
