Mining to resume in Bihar after October 15, says CM Samrat Choudhary

Bihar Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary recently unveiled "Vidyarthi Sahyog," a digital portal aimed at resolving all student grievances across the state. Announced during his Independence Day speech, the platform enables students to lodge complaints and suggestions via the website or a toll-free helpline. The chief minister emphasized that students can expect prompt action, stating that unresolved complaints will result in automatic notices to concerned officials, with resolution promised within 30 days.

Designed to streamline complaint processes, the portal connects students from both government and private institutions, allowing them to track the status of their grievances in real-time. The initiative follows recent student protests in Patna and other towns, as well as the withdrawal of 64 FIRs against students over alleged NEET-UG paper leaks. By providing a centralized platform, the Bihar government aims to eliminate fragmented complaint procedures, ensuring accountability and timely resolution.

Officials highlighted that the portal addresses longstanding issues like administrative delays, hostel maintenance problems, and delayed examinations. By engaging students directly and establishing a 30-day resolution timeline, the government hopes to improve ground-level compliance and accelerate the processing of complaints. This digital effort aligns with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's focus on youth empowerment, as emphasized in his Independence Day address.
